INSTRUCTIONAL TRAINING
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
FIRESTOP IS WIDELY RECOGNIZED AS A PROBLEMATIC ISSUE FOR FACILITIES
ENGINEERING PROFESSIONALS. IT IS PERHAPS THE MOST MISAPPLIED AND MISUNDERSTOOD
SEGMENT OF LIFE-SAFETY IN MODERN CONSTRUCTION, ESPECIALLY WITH THE
CONSTANT CHANGES MADE FOR VOICE/DATA CABLING.
This comprehensive, competency-based course is designed to educate
and train participants in the fundamentals needed to become a resident
firestop specialist. The goal is to equip the participant with the
knowledge and tools needed to return home as an accredited trainer,
and to serve as a resident inspector in confirming whether or not
firestop installations are code compliant or not. WHO
SHOULD ATTEND?
People who will train, inspect or otherwise supervise the firestop
installations of others. These include maintenance and engineering
managers, IS managers, CE managers, infectious control managers, life-safety
officers, loss reduction specialists and other interested parties.
Firestop products are highly dependent on proper design and installation
for success in an actual fire. They are the only code required life-safety
item installed by every trade. In response to the growing demand for
training, The Firestop Solutions Group, a division
of Specified Technologies Inc. has developed a competency-based
training program.
