First year class today took us off campus to look at different building construction design, materials used in construction, and some engineered fire safety solutions. It ended in the old Chubb building where the coffee and cakes went down rather well. @wlv_uni
We used image based scenarios today, on the Fire Investigation module, to test the student learning half way through the module. Class discussions followed. These two, much like the rest of the class, really got into it. @wlv_uni#fire#firetraining#firecadet
