importance of fire safety
The importance of fire safety has not changed despite the COVID-19 pandemic and the FIA needs to continue providing fire safety personnel with access to learning and development opportunities.
FIA's comprehensive portfolio of online qualifications, which is available, serves as a great opportunity to improve knowledge and skills and prove a level of competency with Nationally recognized qualifications.
