ANSUL FIRE SCHOOL-BEAUMONT
CLASSROOM TOPICS
The School
The ANSUL FIRE SCHOOL was started for one reason: to teach people how to use dry chemical fire extinguishers. Over the
years, the school has trained over 50,000 people from all over the world at the Marinette campus, the Beaumont campus, and
on location.
Our instructors are competent, dedicated professionals with over 60 years of fire training experience. And no matter where our
schools are held, student safety is our main concern.
The Curriculum
The training philosophy of the ANSUL FIRE SCHOOL is based on the conviction that the best training is achieved through actual
hands-on experience. And the ANSUL FIRE SCHOOL curriculum reflects this belief. To achieve this goal, the ANSUL FIRE
SCHOOL utilizes modern equipment commonly found in industry.
Class starts at 7:00 AM CST and ends at 3:30 PM CST on both days.
Here is a schedule of the classroom topics covered and the fires fought by the students:

When Did You Last Fight a Fire?
Unless your people frequently fight fires, they tend to forget what theyʼve learned. And with firefighting, that could be costly, even
deadly. Therefore, it is vital that you make fire training a regularly scheduled part of your fire brigadeʼs training agenda.
