With the role of fire and rescue services at the heart of public safety, never has it been more important to find new, effective and sustainable ways of maintaining and improving standards from a declining budget. We recognise that now is an important time for the College to play a full and active role in helping you to achieve challenging objectives. To do this the College is changing.

Our new modularised and distributed training delivery model allows you, as far as possible, to make local choices about what’s delivered, where, when and by whom. We have reviewed our pricing strategy and can offer significant reductions for greater collaboration and aggregation of demand, longevity of commitment and development pathways.

Through working in partnership with you, our vision is to transform the College into a truly world-class training establishment and Centre of Excellence across the fire and wider emergency services sector. I feel honoured to have been appointed to steer the College on the next step of its journey and believe passionately in its future. I have no doubt that it can once again be at the heart of the customer community it serves, increasing efficiencies and providing a central hub around which we can all collaborate. To find out more about any of the developments taking place at the College, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
