Our Training Services are built to equip individuals, organizations, and communities with the skills and confidence needed to understand fire, use fire safely, and operate effectively within wildfire and prescribed fire environments. We combine decades of on-the-ground experience with nationally recognized standards to offer high-quality instruction, mentorship, and hands-on learning opportunities.

Prescribed Fire Training & Support

We provide targeted training for practitioners, landowners, and resource managers involved in prescribed fire projects. Our training covers safe ignition techniques, burn-day operations, contingency planning, smoke management, and post-burn evaluations. We emphasize mentorship and practical, field-based learning to build local capacity and confidence in prescribed fire application.

Fire Behavior Training

Understanding fire behavior is essential for both suppression and mitigation efforts. We deliver in-depth education on wildland fire dynamics, fire spread modeling, fuel and weather interactions, and prediction tools. These trainings prepare participants to anticipate fire behavior under varying conditions and make informed, real-time decisions during wildfire or prescribed fire operations.

Incident Command System (ICS) Training

Effective wildfire management requires clear organization and communication. We offer ICS-focused training tailored to wildfire and all-hazard response, providing participants with the knowledge to operate effectively within multi-agency structures. Training ranges from foundational ICS principles to advanced applications in incident management, ensuring participants are ready to integrate into response teams at local, state, and national levels.
