Fire Training Courses

Running a business comes with daily pressures, but fire safety training should never be overlooked. Providing high-quality fire safety training in Leicester is essential to protect your staff, reduce workplace fire risks, and ensure compliance with UK fire safety legislation, including the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

We deliver professional, tailored fire safety courses in Leicester and across the Midlands. Our training includes fire safety awareness training, Fire Marshal and Fire Warden training, fire extinguisher training, and fire risk assessment support. With experienced trainers from fire service backgrounds, we understand local businesses and provide practical, industry-specific fire safety solutions.

Whether you require on-site fire safety training in Leicester, virtual learning for remote teams, or a blended approach, we tailor every course to your workplace environment. Our goal is to ensure your team develops the knowledge, practical skills, and confidence needed to prevent fires and respond effectively in an emergency.

What type of courses are available?

We offer different levels of courses based on your company’s requirements. These can be tailored to suit your industry or particular site risks.

Fire Awareness is a short course covering the basics. It aims to equip your team with all the knowledge needed to understand: Employer & Employee responsibilities, the Fire Triangle, how to look after fuel and heat sources, what is likely to start afire and how to prevent it, different types of fire extinguishers and how to use them, what to do in the event of a fire. This course includes live fire practicals, and the course lasts around 2 hours.

Fire Marshal / Warden is slightly longer and covers everything from fire awareness to a more in depth level and also includes the duties of a fire marshal / warden in the day-to-day running of the business. They’ll also receive all the practical knowledge about undertaking efficient and orderly evacuations and understanding human behaviour in the event of a fire. Including the live fire practical, this course usually lasts around 3.5 hours.

We can either offer a certificate of attendance on completion of the courses or we can offer accredited courses through Ofqual Level 1 or 2.
