Description
Fire Officer: Principles and Practice, Fourth Edition was significantly updated and reorganized to better serve Officer I and II. The content meets and exceeds the job performance requirements for Officers I and II in the 2020 Edition of NFPA 1021, Standard for Fire Officer Professional Qualifications. The new edition places an emphasis on the application of leadership traits and management theories, common leadership and management challenges, and how leadership is used to meet objectives. The basic principles and methods of Community Risk Reduction are also discussed.
Fire Officer: Principles and Practice, Fourth Edition now has two distinct sections: Section One includes eight chapters, which set the foundation for Officer I’s knowledge and understanding. Section Two comprises six chapters that encompass the higher-level competencies required for Officer II. This new organization will allow you the flexibility to teach your Officer I and II course(s) exactly the way you wish.
