Academy Week 9 & 10 Recap
Academy Weeks 9 & 10 Recap
It's been a busy and warm last few weeks here at UCFD#1, but one thing's for sure - our academy recruits have been hard at work each and every day!
Weeks 9 & 10 of academy training included the use of the forcible entry prop, designed to equip first responders with the skills needed to break down doors in an emergency. Recruits also practiced this skill in a simulated smoke-filled scenario.
The Academy also completed the ventilation unit with the help of our FireVent prop. Ventilation training improves firefighters' skills in removing heat, smoke, and toxic gases from structures, improving visibility and air quality for themselves and any potential occupants.
Stay tuned next week for Week 11 & 12's recap! Our recruits are so close to the finish line with just one week of academy left!
