Held in conjunction with the Fire Marshals Roundtable
Class runs Monday through Wednesday (Thursday session included)

Description:

Do you have personnel that need to become certified in the International Fire Code?  Are you looking for an overview or refresher of the codes needed for fire inspection work? For the third year, the Fire Marshal Roundtable will include code training designed to help students prepare for the ICC International Fire Code certification exam.  Wayne Senter, who received excellent student reviews last year for course content and delivery of this technical material, will instruct this three day course again this year.  Students are required to bring the 2006 IFC,  2006 IBC and IFSTA Fire Inspection and Code Enforcement 6th edition. The code track will include information on the code format and organization, technical provisions, and will prepare students to pass the International Fire Code Inspector I and II certification by providing test taking strategies for certification and practice examinations.
