Course Curriculum

What You Will Learn — Basic Fire Fighting Course Curriculum

Our DCD and KHDA-approved Basic Fire Fighting Training Course in Dubai gives every participant the foundational knowledge and hands-on practical skills to identify fire hazards, operate fire extinguishers correctly, respond effectively to a fire emergency, and evacuate safely. This is the essential entry-level fire safety certification for all employees across every industry in Dubai and the UAE.

Fire Triangle & Fire Behaviour

Understand the three elements that create and sustain fire — heat, fuel, and oxygen — and how removing any one element extinguishes a fire. Learn how fires start, spread, and escalate, including the stages of fire development from incipient to fully developed.

Classes of Fire — A, B, C, D & K

Identify all five classes of fire: Class A (ordinary combustibles), Class B (flammable liquids), Class C (flammable gases), Class D (metal fires), and Class K (cooking oils and fats). Understanding fire classification is essential for selecting the correct extinguisher and response technique.

Types of Fire Extinguishers & Correct Selection

Learn to identify, select, and operate the correct extinguisher for each fire class: Water, CO₂ (carbon dioxide), Dry Powder, Foam, and Wet Chemical. Understanding which extinguisher to use — and which NOT to use — can prevent injury and control a fire before it spreads.

Practical Fire Extinguisher Operation

Hands-on practical training using the PASS technique — Pull the pin, Aim the nozzle, Squeeze the handle, Sweep at the base. Participants practise extinguisher operation in a controlled live-fire simulation environment supervised by certified DCD-approved instructors.

Causes & Prevention of Workplace Fires

Identify the most common causes of workplace fires — faulty electrical equipment, improper storage of flammable materials, unattended cooking, smoking in prohibited areas, and hot work activities — and apply practical prevention measures relevant to your specific workplace environment.

Fire Alarm Systems & Early Detection

Understand how fire detection and alarm systems operate — including smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual call points, and sprinkler systems. Learn the correct response when a fire alarm sounds and how to avoid false alarm triggers in the workplace.

Evacuation Procedures & Emergency Planning

Apply safe and efficient workplace evacuation procedures — from raising the alarm and activating the emergency plan, to guiding colleagues to assembly points and conducting headcounts. Understand the role of fire wardens, assembly points, and accountability during an evacuation.

Basic Fire Risk Assessment

Conduct a structured basic fire risk assessment of a workplace — identifying potential ignition sources, fuel sources, and people at risk. Learn to evaluate existing fire safety measures and identify simple improvements that reduce fire risk and support Dubai Civil Defence compliance.

All topics are delivered through a combination of engaging classroom instruction and hands-on practical fire simulations, supervised by DCD-approved certified instructors with over 20 years of fire safety training experience.
