TESTIMONIALS

Fire Inspector Level I & II Combined

“Excellent videos and content. One of the better online courses I have done. You can tell a lot of
effort was put into the online content. It shows. This course was so much better than a lot of the
other online courses I have done in the past.”

Chris den Ouden

Fire Inspector Level I & II Combined

“This course enabled me to begin my journey in Fire Prevention with knowledge and confidence.
The blended course was the best option for my intended job path and the self-paced learning allowed for no disruptions with my work or personal commitments. I was very impressed with the process of obtaining NFPA certification, as it was straight-forward and timely.”

Aimee Jordan

 

Fire Inspector Level I & II Combined

“I was very skeptical of an online Fire Inspector course and believed I might be throwing my money away, as it would be an extremely challenging course that I would find difficult to complete. I was happy to find out this has not been the case so far. Quite the opposite actually. It provides a lot of info and was challenging enough to keep me interested and not so challenging as to dissuade me from working on it whenever I had time.”

 

Fire Investigation Origin & Cause Level I & II

“I feel like it has been one of the best courses I have taken in my journey to becoming a Fire Investigator. I have had fun learning so many new things during the Online NFPA 1033 Course.
There is more information contained within it than I anticipated. I also very much appreciate being able to watch Dr. Dehann in his videos throughout the modules. His level of experience is a rare treat. His explanations and advice are sometimes followed by anecdotal stories, which add realism to the learning. Visually, the fire scene was more crisp and sharp than I expected. With a seemingly higher level of definition than I have seen from other learning tools, especially
when considering the zoom-in function.”
