FIRE OPS 101 - SEPTEMBER 14, 2026

FIRE OPS 101 provides elected and appointed officials and the media with a hands-on opportunity to better understand the complexities of what you do on a daily basis.

Conducting a FIRE OPS 101 exposes participants to the smoke, the adrenaline rush, and the physical stress and strain fire fighters and emergency medical personnel routinely address. In addition participants will gain a better understanding of adequate and safe staffing and the need to have up-to-date protective equipment, modern apparatus and presumptive laws that protect our members.

On behalf of the BCPFFA, thanks to Local 18, Vancouver Fire & Rescue Interim Fire Chief, Trevor Connelly and the Training Division for providing the facility and resources.
