Make sure your staff know exactly what to do in the event of a fire.
Our Fire Safety Awareness and Fire Marshal Training courses are designed to help your business stay safe and compliant — while giving your team the knowledge and confidence to act when it matters most.
Delivered by IFE-trained fire safety professionals with real-world industry experience, our courses are approved by the Institution of Fire Engineers (IFE) and fully aligned with current UK fire safety legislation.

Training all staff on safe evacuation
Assigning and preparing fire marshals or wardens
Complying with Health & Safety and Fire Risk Assessment duties
Failure to deliver suitable training can lead to fines, enforcement notices, or worse — unprepared staff in an emergency.
