The University of Missouri Extension Fire and Rescue Training Institute’s (MU FRTI) mission is to provide training that meets the needs of fire and rescue personnel and other emergency managers and responders so that they can better protect lives and property within their communities. In fulfilling this mission, MU FRTI has a direct impact on the well-being and protection of Missouri’s greater than 23,000 firefighters and the 5.9 million citizens they serve.

In order to fulfill this mission, MU FRTI depends on a small dedicated fulltime staff supported by part-time Regional Training Coordinators and an Adjunct Instructor Cadre. The Adjunct Instructional Cadre includes over 160 regular part-time instructors, as well as guest and partner organization instructors for specialized programs like this Summer Fire School (SFS). The Institute gratefully acknowledges the role that all our personnel play in the education and training of Missouri fire and emergency service responders. During this year’s Summer Fire School, we want to specifically recognize and remember the dedicated life of Regional Training Coordinator and Adjunct Instructor Lee Ireland who passed away on June 26, 2013.

Lee had a multifaceted career that included serving in the fire service in a variety of capacities from firefighter, to training officer, to Fire Protection District Board member, to adjunct instructor and Regional Training Coordinator. In addition he also served as the Newton County Chief Deputy Coroner/Investigator, and worked for the Neosho Housing Authority. Lee began his career in the fire service in 1969 and became an Adjunct Instructor with MU FRTI in 1985. In 1992, he was appointed as one of MU FRTI’s Regional Training Coordinators serving State Highway Patrol Region D (Southwest Missouri) a position he retained until his death. Over the years, Lee had a consistent leadership presence at MU FRTI Fire Schools. He served on the Command Team for both Winter and Summer Fire Schools, and his involvement with both schools was a valued asset to the Institute.

Throughout Lee Ireland’s life, he had a passion for and dedication to the fire service. He actively participated in learning the skills of firefighting as a student and then willingly shared his knowledge teaching other firefighters. He understood the importance of firefighter training and worked diligently as a Regional Training Coordinator to ensure access to training opportunities for fire and emergency responders within his region. He touched many lives through his multiple roles in public service, and especially within the fire service.

Those who learned the profession of firefighting from him, were mentored and helped by him, served beside him, and who worked with him at MU FRTI, will cherish our memories of him. Lee was a dedicated Fire Service Professional that contributed much on behalf of many. Thank you, Lee, for all the firefighters you trained, and as a result, the lives and property saved by those firefighters. In recognition of Lee’s service we offer the heartfelt traditional fire service homage: God’s Speed Lee Ireland – well done thy true and faithful servant.

It is appropriate and only fitting that the Institute honors the memory of Regional Training Coordinator Lee Ireland and his life-long commitment to training firefighters as well as his dedicated service as a member of the Fire School Command Team, by dedicating the 2014 Summer Fire School in memoriam to him.

The Missouri Summer Fire School started in 1933 as the “Summer Fire College.” It was started when it was determined that training was needed for “firemen” to perform their duties safely and efficiently. While many things have changed,

this basic premise of the Summer Fire School has not. This school is definitely unique in its ability to provide practical skills that cannot always be accomplished through traditional field programs.

You will see several new courses this year and some courses that have been revised to meet NFPA standards for professional certification. The majority of courses offer Continuing Education Units (CEUs) applicable toward Missouri Division of Fire Safety recertification, Missouri Bureau of EMS relicensure, or Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST). Several courses also meet the American Council on Education recommendations for college credit.

MU FRTI is sure you will find the selection of courses this year that meet your training needs. The value-added bonus of networking opportunities will make attending this year’s Summer Fire School a wise choice for your training dollar!

This course focuses on the different aspects of fire behavior such as hostile fire events, ventilation profiles, the effects of fuel loads in modern homes, building construction features, and how technology has changed the way we fight fires. Instructors will expound on each of these subjects using lecture, discussion, and videos, focusing heavily on firefighter safety as it relates to training as well as real world situations. Discussions and observations will teach participants to recognize the signs leading to flashover. Attendees will be allowed in a live fire laboratory to observe the phases of fire and the process of pyrolysis. Nozzle techniques will be demonstrated that may give firefighters enough time prior to a flashover to escape, affect a rescue, find the seat of the fire, and perform vertical ventilation.

The successful advancement of the first line is more than just pulling hose and dragging it through the structure. As firefighters and operators we need to know why we are pulling a particular hose line and how to effectively and efficiently deploy it. The quicker we get water on the fire the quicker conditions improve. This course will discuss and demonstrate different hose loads and deployments, techniques for stretching above and below grade, timing your tank water, deploying with limited resources, and handling the hose properly. Stretching line seems simple, but if done incorrectly or sloppy, it can have dire consequences.

Fire departments and rescue teams commonly respond to incidents involving collapsed structures, confined spaces, water, automobiles, and industrial entrapments. These can be grouped into a category called technical rescue incidents, which requires personnel with specialized skills and equipment. Many factors can lead up to the need for technical rescue, such as: industrial and transportation accidents, extreme sports, and even mother nature plays a role with floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, and hurricanes that can trap and injure many people. This course will introduce rescue personnel to the basic needs to perform at technical rescue incidents and will address NFPA 1006, Rescue Technician Professional Qualifications, 2003 edition, Chapter 5.

For decades firefighters have been taught that suppression operations should be conducted from the interior of the structure as a means to reduce water damage and limit fire damage by “pushing fire”. Recent NIOSH examinations of line of duty deaths have shown that ventilation events occurring with fire fighters in the structure prior to suppression, have led to tragic loss of life. One means of eliminating the possibilities of this occurrence would be a transitional attack, in which water is directed into the structure from the exterior to cool the fire gases and reduce the heat release rate of the fire, prior to the firefighters entering the structure. This course will discuss the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) studies on structural fire attack and the paramount need to control ventilator pathways. Topics will include IMS, size-up, search and rescue, ventilation, forcible entry, and hose stream management. This course will conclude with live fire training that will provide hands-on skills training that is necessary in a structural fire attack.

Prerequisites: Participants will be required to complete a Health Screening Questionnaire (HQS) and provide base line physical information prior to having the test administered. Base line physical information will be taken at the academy.

Contact Hours: ...................................................1

The Work Capacity Test (WCT) is required annually of all personnel who will be serving in wildland or prescribed fire positions that require a fitness level. The currency for the WCT is 12 months and will be administered for the “arduous” work category; which requires carrying a 45-pound pack over three (3) miles in 45 minutes or less. Forty-five pound packs will be provided.

individuals who have not been involved in regular physical activity are at an elevated risk for cardiovascular complications during exertion. They should not begin training for a work capacity test until they have participated in a gradual transition from inactivity to regular physical activity. Previously sedentary individuals should engage in 4 or more weeks of moderate activity (walking 30 to 60 minutes, 3 to 5 days per week) before they begin more vigorous training for a test..

PMS 310-1PmS 310-1 recognizes the ability of cooperating agencies at the local level to jointly define certification and qualification standards to meet local needs. As such, personnel (on a case by case basis) may be admitted to one or more of the courses being offered through this academy, that have not met all prerequisites for a particular course. Participating agencies will ensure that all personnel mobilized beyond their local geographic area to an incident under federal jurisdiction, meet the nwcg standards established for the position assigned.
