TSB Loss Control seminars

Industrial Emergency Response Leadership Training Seminar

This seminar is an intensive ~30 hour training course focusing on incident command and control (progressive steps to incident management); tactics and strategy; fire attack; hazardous materials emergency response; rescue operations (confined space, high angle, below grade, entrapment, etc.); laws, codes, standards and regulations (how they impact industrial emergency response teams); fire prevention plans; emergency action plans; emergency response plans; organizational statements; automatic and manual fire protection systems (overview); emergency response equipment selection; and coordination with outside organizations and agencies (fire and police departments, EPA, media, etc.).

Fire Protection Systems/Equipment Maintenance and Inspection Seminar

This seminar is an intensive ~30 hour course emphasizing the benefits of installed fire protection systems and their impact on loss prevention programs. Attendees will learn first hand the principles and practices of maintaining, inspecting, testing, and troubleshooting fire protection and detection equipment to include fire protection water distribution systems, sprinkler systems (wet pipe, dry pipe, pre-action, and deluge), and alarm systems. The program is designed to address the specific fire protection systems and troubleshooting issues of concern to those in attendance.

Industrial Fire Fighter Training Seminar

This intensive ~30 hour training course balances classroom and field instruction with realistic (job related) hands-on training focused on: fire fighter safety at industrial emergencies; basic chemistry and physics of fire (fire behavior); fire dynamics (interior fire environment); fire stream application and fire extinguishment techniques for interior structural fires, flammable/combustible liquid fires, pressurized gas fires, and fires with electrical hazards; portable fire extinguishers; installed fire protection systems and special hazard protection; and other knowledge, skills, and abilities needed to operate safely and effectively during industrial fire emergencies.

Industrial Hazardous Materials Emergency Response Training Seminar

This seminar is an intensive ~30 hour course designed specifically for industrial personnel who respond to hazardous materials emergencies. Comprehensive classroom training will prepare attendees for intensive practical skills (hands-on) exercises to include donning personal protective equipment (PPE); application of A, B, and C leak control kits for chlorine emergencies; decontamination exercises; over-pack exercises; spill and leak control exercises; Incident Command System (ICS) training; and much more.

Confined Space/High Angle Technical Rescue Training Seminar

This seminar is an intensive ~30 hour training course focusing on industrial technical rescue operations where emergency response personnel may be faced with confined space and high angle rescue challenges. Attendees will be introduced to the confined space/high angle technical rescue environment and provided detailed hands-on training. Training topics will include an overview of skills and terminology commonly used during rescue operations; technical rescue equipment familiarization; hazard and risk assessment relative to rescue operations involving confined spaces and high angles; preplanning site-specific rescue operations; an overview of confined space entry procedures; personal protective equipment for rescuers; atmospheric monitoring techniques; patient packaging techniques; constructing anchor systems; constructing mechanical advantage systems commonly used in the rescue environment; descending a fixed rope; removing entrants from confined spaces using retrieval equipment under emergency conditions; and much more.
