Fire Service Course Design

"The purpose of this course is to learn how to apply training design principles to courses that will be used by other instructors. Students identify a training need within their organization as a pre-course assignment. During the class, students apply principles to create the design of the training program that meets their identified training need (from the pre-course assignment) for their jurisdiction or organization. In designing their own training program, students conduct a needs assessment, develop a job task analysis, establish goals and objectives, design an evaluation plan, determine instructional methods and activities to be used, and plan for media and instructional materials.

Note: Students who have taken the two-week version of “Fire Service Course Design” are not eligible to attend this course.

Student Selection Criteria: Personnel with course design and development responsibilities.
