Fire Safety On Campus

UNV-7.2

Fire emergencies can happen anytime, anywhere, even on campus. Fires are one of the most common emergencies to contend with in both homes and workplaces, and can be one of the most harmful if not dealt with properly. This course should give students and employees the knowledge to safely react and respond to a fire emergency on campus. Learners will find out about their responsibilities in a fire emergency, how to identify different alarm signals, evacuation routes and procedures, and fire extinguisher use. This course is intended for college and university employees, students and volunteers who are required to understand their responsibilities in a fire emergency. This course assists employers in meeting fire safety standards required by OSHA, however there may also be a site-specific training component required that must be fulfilled by an employer.
