FROM KNOWLEDGE TO PRACTICE:
Embedding scientific knowledge of fire dynamics into firefighting operations.
In January of 2014 Ottawa Fire Services and its partners, the Calgary Fire Department, Halifax Regional Fire & Emergency and the service de sécurité incendie de Montréal were notified by the Canadian Safety and Security Program (CSSP) that the project funding proposal aimed at developing a collaborative, comprehensive Fire Dynamics Training Curriculum was successful. The CSSP, which is led by Defe

In addition to the CSSP’s commitment, the project has received widespread support from the Canadian and international fire service communities.
