e-Learning module
An online learning module is available to improve home fire safety for people who are at higher risk from fire. This learning module is for:
- Individuals at higher risk from fire
- Carers
- Support Workers
- Service Providers
- Others delivering in-home support
This online learning module was originally developed by the Victorian CFA and Fire Rescue Victoria and contains content specific to their fire services.
The module is currently being redeveloped to ensure it fully reflects the needs of residents in NSW. In the meantime, NSW-specific resources have been provided under the reference links section below. We would like to thank the Victorian CFA and Fire Rescue Victoria for generously allowing us to use their eLearning module.
