Firefighters train hard to prepare for the next call, but what if the training itself is putting them at risk? Continuous exposure to carcinogens from Class A fires can significantly increase cancer rates among firefighters—especially for training officers who spend the most time in live-burn scenarios. Join Kevin Shea, a legendary firefighter and technical rescue expert, as he dives into the dangers of traditional fire training and the safer alternatives that can reduce exposure without compromising effectiveness. Learn how using Class B fires and digital fire solutions can help protect both instructors and trainees while maintaining a high level of preparedness. This session will empower firefighters and training officers with the knowledge they need to make training safer for themselves and future generations.
