This is a FREE pre-conference workshop hosted by the Colorado Fire Training Officers Association.
New and current Training Officers, or anyone who is a training leader within their department. The goals of this workshop are to; familiarize new T.O.’s with the tools and resources available through the Division of Fire Prevention and Control, update all attendees on the policy and procedure changes pertaining to the certification process, gain access to committee leads for Officer, Policy/Proctor, and Haz-mat to improve understanding of the changes and best practices. Attendees will have the opportunity to speak with senior instructors and RMS technical specialists to find best practices and “tips and tricks” for training development and documentation. Attendees will also be able to network with other T.O.’s, to share knowledge and resources.
