BCCommand Officer Boot Camp 2015
Command, Control, and Leadership Conference
May 5, 6, & 7, 2015
Pensacola Beach
Front Yard Leadership and How to Lead High Performers!
Chief Todd Edwards will cover Situational Awareness
Lost and found
The term Situational Awareness is so often used, that it has almost become a “catch phrase”, rather than skill that should be practiced and trained upon. The fire service and the fire ground are ever changing and the need for both our Company Officers, as well as our Chief Officers to learn and maintain Situational Awareness is critical to success and in some cases our survival!
This course is designed to provide all students a different perspective of what Situational Awareness is and how it applies to more than just the “Big Fires”. Students will both learn and experience that when Situational Awareness is lost, the effects can be devastating! Students will be involved in open and frank discussion, case studies with radio traffic, and be provided a common sense approach on how to develop an overall skill that can be applied each and every shift. This class includes an in depth look at how we can develop these skills, a simplified size-up approach, and training aspects that any Firefighter, Officer, or Chief can utilize.
About the Instructor: Todd Edwards is a 33 year veteran of the fire service. Starting at 16 years old in Mad River Township, Ohio as a Cadet. Todd was hired by the Atlanta Fire-Rescue Department in 1988 and worked his way through the ranks. Todd is currently a Battalion Chief, assigned to Battalion-3, covering the entire Downtown corridor. Todd has always been actively involved in all aspects of the departments training and is the lead instructor for both the Acting Officer in Charge Program, as well as the Battalion Chief Command School. Todd is the lead Instructor for the Walton County Fire-Rescue Department, a combination department covering over 300 square miles east of the city. Todd also provides training throughout the state of Georgia and serves as an adjunct instructor for the state fire academy. Todd holds numerous state and national certifications and continues is education today.
This three day conference will cover: from the firehouse to the streets of your district and how to command the most efficient crew or battalion. What does an Officer and/or Chief really need to focus on to succeed in today’s Fire Service? We will cover and discuss these topics and much more in a three day Boot Camp to help even the most experienced Fire Officer and/or get the most recently promoted Boss off to a Great Start!

BC Curt Isakson, Battalion Chief Escambia County

Suburban High Rise Track
“Lead Captain Bill Gustin”
The SHRT will be held at the Hilton and start promptly at 07:30 in the classroom. The class will transition to Hands-On by 08:30 utilizing the stairwells and fixed fire protection systems. This class will cover pumping the system and alternative stretches for coastal type high rise, utilizing suburban staffing. There will be an opportunity to use 1.75″, 2″, and 2.5″ hose off the standpipe.
Urban High Rise Track
“Lead Chief McGrail”
The UHRT will also be held at the Hilton and start promptly at 07:30 in the classroom. You will proceed to utilizing the elevators and stairs to two floors below where you will hook up and go up utilizing 2.5″ hose and Urban High Rise Tactics.

Command Track
The Command Track will be co-taught by Chief Kolomay, Chief Hoff, Chief Tracy, and Captain Cerillo. These four instructors have extensive experience in standpipe/high rise type buildings and have taught across America. They will start the day in the classroom and finish the day with multiple rotations of walking through the 18 story hotel covering Commamd considerations and what the firefighters will be up against when command is in the lobby/control room. This is more than just sit in a classroom all day. You will be one step out of the classroom. I highly recommend anyone who could be in command of a HR Fire to consider choosing this track.
Advanced Engine Operations/Engine Operations at High Rise Fires “Class starts at 08:30 and ends at 1600. This is the only class that completes in time for someone trying to catch a flight on Thursday evening. Class Instructors are Dennis Legear and Kyle Smith.
