Alternative delivery options will be presented that allow the volunteer to achieve their training goals while meeting their responsibilities at home. Each chapter is broken down into subcategories that thoroughly explain all of the duties of the volunteer training officer.

Each chapter ends with review questions. Volunteer Training Officer's Handbook is ideally suited for the volunteer training officer, chief officer, or fire fighter of any rank looking to develop drills and training programs for their department. Both volunteer and paid departments will find the lessons invaluable. Each book comes with a CD-ROM that includes appendices, instructor materials such as roll call forms, presentation material in PowerPoint, and student material. |
