Prescribed Fire Training Exchange, or TREX, is a great off-season opportunity for all wildland firefighters and collaborators, and can be a great way to round out a position taskbook. Opportunities exist across the US and select international locations.
According to the TREX information page,
"Prescribed Fire Training Exchanges (TREX) and cooperative burns provide experiential training that builds robust local capacity for fire management and offers professional fire practitioners a more holistic perspective—while implementing treatments that support community and landscape objectives. "
TREX provides training opportunities for firefighters of all experience levels, but is focused on developing Prescribed Fire positions, and can provide training opportunities for NWCG Position Taskbook holders, including but not limited to;
Firefighter Type 1 (FFT1)
Fire Effects Monitor (FEMO)
Firing Boss (FIRB)
Engine Boss (ENGB)
Crew Boss (CRWB)
Burn Boss (RXB2)
These events also provide an excellent opportunity for networking with other fire practitioners from federal, state, local, private and international organizations.
