Course overview
The Certificate IV in Public Safety (Firefighting Supervision) course is designed for firefighting professionals who lead firefighting teams. This will include the coordination of resources and the supervision of personnel at an incident.
The role of a firefighter at this level is to manage incidents, protect lives and prevent the destruction of property and the environment. To prevent incidents from occurring and to improve community safety a firefighter’s duties may include conducting community education programs about fire and community safety and undertaking fire inspections of locations to verify adherence to local fire regulations.
This qualification includes the units of competency required by firefighters to control an incident and to perform a range of related activities. It typically involves some discretion in selecting equipment, services and contingency measures.
