Fire Extinguisher Training

To celebrate Fire Safety Month, the Office of the Fire Marshal will be awarding a $50 prize to whoever extinguishes a simulated fire the fastest in one of our October classes! Open to all UMB students and employees. Must attend a class in October 2024 to be eligible to win.  

Fire extinguisher training consists of a short presentation about the science of fire, the different types of fires and fire extinguishers, and how to properly use a fire extinguisher. Attendees then receive hand-on practice with a fire extinguisher simulator.

Upon successful completion of the course, attendees will receive a digital micro-credential. This training is part of the Preparedness Pro digital micro-credential.
