What we provide
The Centre provides a range of development opportunities for all staff ranging from an initial Firefighter Development Programme, Breathing Apparatus and Motor Vehicle Accident programmes to Information Technology. The Learning & Development Centre is an approved NVQ Centre, offering a range of vocational based awards for internal staff. Many of our programmes are also accredited by the Open College Network and these include our Community Safety programmes.
"We recognise and accept responsibility to respond positively to the changing demands being placed on the modern Fire and Rescue Service. This will require flexible and forward thinking management at all levels and a workforce committed to protecting our local communities. Our vision is for a service pro-active in preventing loss of life and injuries, preventing fires and other risks and one that supports the broader agenda of social inclusion, neighbourhood renewal and crime reduction."
