Basic Operations Firefighter/NFPA Firefighter I
Module C Online: 20 Hours
Course Description:
The Basic Operations Firefighter Online Modules Course is designed to give new firefighters the cognitive training needed to operate safely and effectively on the fire ground. IFSI’s Basic Operations Firefighter Online Modules Course meets the requirements outlined by the Illinois Office of the State Fire Marshal for entry-level firefighter training. This course leverages the convenience of online learning while allowing local hands-on practice, promoting both skill competency and an understanding of the fire ground. Students complete numerous online activities that lay the foundation for in-person skill acquisition.
How the Course Works:
The Module C course operates differently from Modules A and B. IFSI offers Module C by combining several on-demand courses to meet the OSFM requirements. These courses are all conveniently provided in the Online Classes portion of the Student Resource Center. The student may complete these courses and upload the required certificates to the Module C classroom for review. Once all courses are complete and certificates are verified, the Program Manager will notify the student that they have met the requirements for Module C. All certifications earned through IFSI’s Module C course must be saved, printed, and documented in the student’s individual training file at their department. IFSI will not send certifications to the sponsoring fire department.
The content in Module C is required for OSFM BOF certification. Completing Module C with IFSI is not required for OSFM BOF certification. IFSI provides this module as a convenience for students. Any student may complete the courses required for Module C on their own outside IFSI.
Module C Topics:
First Aid/CPR:
The Illinois OSFM requires a CPR/Basic First Aid course for the completion of Module C. Due to the regional differences in medical systems, IFSI does not offer this course. It is the responsibility of the sponsoring fire department to provide and document the completion of this course in the student’s training record.
Certification:
There is no Illinois Office of the State Fire Marshal exam required for Module C.
All completion certificates earned through the courses provided in Module C shall be kept in the student’s training record at his/her sponsoring fire department.
There are no prerequisites to taking this course
