The field of Fire Investigation is one that is complicated and detailed. The subjects of fire origin and fire cause as well as investigator safety are a must for anyone working in the field of fire investigations. The Emergency Services College provides three levels of training for fire investigators. Attendance is restricted to police/fire or persons having statutory authority/responsibility for the investigation of fires/explosions. The three courses cover all requirements of NFPA 1033 "Professional Qualifications for Fire Investigator" and use NFPA 921 "Guide for Fire and Explosion Investigations" as one of the main textbooks. These courses will provide comprehensive skills, which are useful in fire cause determination investigations. After completing the three levels, the Investigator may then complete the steps to become an Accredited Fire Investigator. This part of the program meets the requirements of NFPA 1033 "Professional Qualifications for Fire Investigator" and is accredited with the International Fire Service Accreditation Congress.
Course descriptions and costs are detailed in the Manitoba Emergency Services 2008/09 Course Catalogue.
