(1) Training scheduled for FESA personnel and volunteers in 2012 continues to include core training for career fire fighters, specialised training for volunteers and professional development and training programs for FESA personnel to expand upon key organisational skills as well as management and leadership programs which underpin corporate initiatives and are in line with government direction.
(2) Training is available to all FESA staff and volunteers and is a key element in supporting FESA operational response. In recognition of the need to expand FESA's training capacity, an additional 16 FTE (including the establishment of two Regional Training Coordinators in the South West and Lower South West) was approved in recent budget processes to increase operational training capability.
