FRI provides the most comprehensive leadership training for both chief officers and company officers

Maximize your budget and get the most for your training dollars in 2010. Make your plans now to attend Fire-Rescue International (FRI), August 24-28 in Chicago.

FRI provides the most comprehensive leadership training for both chief officers and company officers at a price that fits your budget. The sessions provide:

  • • In-depth learning. Attend focused education tracks that combine critical thinking with practical applications, ensuring you get the most out of each session you attend.
    • Officer development. With a new program for battalion chiefs and the only comprehensive symposium for company officers, we have the tools for today's leaders.
    • Interactive presentations. Engage with the industry's most respected speakers in dynamic workshops-they'll challenge you to take a new look at how you do things.

In addition to leadership training, your registration includes free access to an expo hall, featuring over 600 of the leading apparatus, equipment and services providers in the fire and emergency service. And only at FRI can you experience the Technology Pavilion, the Health and Wellness Pavilion and the Solution Showcase.

Also exclusive to FRI are these events:

  • Executive Edge: Small class instruction from fire service veterans
  • A live demonstration of a proven inter- and intra-state fire, EMS and special operations mutual-aid system
  • Coaching courses through the Chicago Coaches Federation

FRI also is unique in that it affords you the opportunity to expand your professional network of fellow chiefs and officers from across the U.S. and Canada and around the globe. By making contacts with people who understand and appreciate your issues and challenges, you create a network of peers you can share ideas with and reach out to for assistance, guidance and mentoring now and for years to come.
