Firefighting Training Program

Print Send Bookmark
DFW Airport Department of Public Safety's Fire Rescue Training Academy conducts exercises that are based on actual incidents that have occurred at DFW Airport and other airports around the world. The scenarios and curriculum are developed from strategy and tactics used by Aircraft Fire Rescue Firefighters and Command Staff that are proven effective and successful. This information exchange and practical application is intended to provide each firefighter participating in the courses an opportunity to gain knowledge and skills from our experiences. Training is conducted using aircraft built to scale and using the appropriate number of trainees required to train under the safest and most realistic conditions possible
