Live Fire: RIT Under Fire
Join the experienced instructors at the Illinois Fire Service Institute (IFSI), who will deliver an intense course on the necessary skills to effectively operate as a member of a rapid intervention team (RIT). Maximizing every bit of time, students will participate in a classroom-style lecture and discussion during the bus ride to the facility. Once on site, students will participate in multiple live fire skill development rotations that include challenging ladder rescues with and without SCBA, lifts to the window, cribbing, debris cuts, approaches to the down firefighter, and numerous drags and carries. Students will finish with best practices decon, then participate in training critiques and debriefing during the bus ride back.
