    I'm the lead advisor for our FF Cadet Training program, we have taken the FF II Handbook and worked off that. Even though I'm working with cadets, I think it gives them a real look and taste of what it is to be a FF. We are blessed with having several certified instructors on our Dept. I have even asked the cadets, what they wanted to train on..it has always proven benefical. It seems they even pay more attention to the class and drills.

    You don't have to be a certified instructor to gain access to good firefighter training materials. There's a multitude of books, workbooks, DVDs, etc. available at fireservicebooks.com
