Why choose live fire training?
Practice using a real fire extinguisher on a real flame.

Once training is complete you can rest assured that you have met your legal fire safety training requirements, and all participants will receive a certificate. We recommend that participants take part in a refresher course every two years.
Is fire extinguisher training mandatory?
The owners of buildings that require an Evacuation Scheme must have, and practice, an evacuation training programme so building occupants can escape to safety during a fire emergency. The training programme must include details of how the occupants are trained to use any firefighting equipment in the building. Therefore, it is important that occupants of the building are trained to use a fire extinguisher.
In addition to the above, and under the Health & Safety at Work Act a person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU) has a primary duty of care to ensure the health and safety of workers while they are at work in the business. Find out more on the Worksafe website.
