Fire Drill Training Course

Practice today. Protect tomorrow.

Our proactive Fire Drill Training Course prepares your team to respond swiftly, calmly, and systematically in the event of an emergency.

Regular, well-executed fire drills are vital to building a workplace where everyone knows exactly what to do—no hesitation, no panic.

Led by experienced fire safety trainers, we’ll guide your staff through best practices for safe evacuation and post-drill reviews, making sure your organisation stays fully compliant and fully prepared.

Why this training matters

When a real emergency strikes, there’s no time to second-guess your actions.
Fire drill training ensures that:

• Buildings are evacuated quickly and in an orderly way
• Escape routes are correctly followed according to your fire strategy
• Staff and visitors respond calmly instead of panicking
• Designated fire marshals and responsible persons fulfil their duties
• Special considerations are made for individuals with disabilities or impairments
  
  

This course isn’t just ticking a box—it’s about creating a safer environment for everyone.

What your team will learn

Through a combination of theoretical guidance and practical drills, your team will learn how to:

• Recognise alarm signals and evacuation routes

• Understand the responsibilities of fire marshals and evacuation team leaders
