“One of the best recruiting tools is a training program, have a good training environment with buy in at all levels, make it worth everyone’s time...” Chief Justin Bailey,

Another great session today at #FDIC2019 on Leading Change Through Training “use the right technology appropriately and effectively that is applicable to YOUR department, follow the smoke, and haters are like crickets” Thanks @ruralfireoffcr Devon Wells!

From the opening remarks with @BobbyHalton - EMS willingly put themselves between order and chaos - there is no more noble calling. The fire service first and foremost cares about life; step up and be called upon! “I like telling Chiefs what to do - it’s good to be old” #FDIC2019

[Matt Edgar @medgarTFD15]

#FDIC2019 this is a data driven human centric world; smart cities will have 10 hour fire rated walls not 1 hour. Future cities have to keep first responders safe so that you can keep us all safe. Future tech is way over my head... @thedigitgroup

From the son of a Learherhead prior to the invocation. “If I were able to open up a confessional here at FDIC and charge $5 I’d retire early and there would be a line up down the block, maybe just for a buck and a half” #FDIC is a family reunion. Great start to another great day!

“In the volunteer fire service every public contact is a recruitment opportunity” #FDIC2019 Volunteer Recruiting, Replacement, and Retention session yesterday. “Recruitment begins and ends at the firehouse door.”

[Matt Edgar @medgarTFD15]

More #FDIC2019 Day 1 Highlights: “Firefighting is the best damn job I’ve ever had and if you don’t understand that, I can’t help you!” @BobbyHalton your fire and passion is contagious. What a way to start my first FDIC experience! Opening Ceremonies were incredible.
