About this training
What is Onsite Fire Marshal Training?
Whether you refer to them as fire marshals or fire wardens, this comprehensive face-to-face fire marshal training equips your team with the practical skills needed to prevent fires and respond effectively in emergencies. Plus, every session includes an unforgettable live fire extinguisher practical, ensuring your staff have genuine, hands-on experience in a safe, controlled environment.
A certified fire marshal acts as the bridge between your staff and the emergency services.
Training is up to date for 2026 and focuses on three core areas:
Prevention
Identifying potential fire hazards and ensuring daily fire safety compliance.
Evacuation
Leading safe, orderly exits and conducting accurate roll calls at assembly points.
Action
Liaising with emergency services and using fire extinguishers to tackle small fires.
Our onsite fire marshal/warden training is typically delivered over a half-day (approximately 3 hours) and is split into two engaging sections:
Section 1: Fire Safety Management & Prevention
The common causes of workplace fires and how to prevent them.
The duties and responsibilities of a fire marshal/warden during an evacuation.
- How to conduct effective fire risk management and dynamic risk assessments (DRA).
Understanding the fire triangle and how fires spread (convection, conduction, radiation).
The role of the "Responsible Person" under the RRFSO 2005.
Session 2: Practical Fire Extinguisher Training
Safety precautions required before using fire-fighting equipment.
Understanding the different types of fire extinguishers (Water, Foam, CO2, Powder) and their specific uses.
Hands-on practical: Safely demonstrating competent fire extinguishment using real equipment under expert supervision.
Nothing beats the hands-on experience of an in person fire marshal training session.
