Fire Safety for Managers and Supervisors
The Fire Safety for Managers and Supervisors course provides critical training on fire safety management, risk assessment, and regulatory compliance. It equips managers and supervisors with the knowledge to implement fire prevention strategies, oversee fire protection systems, and ensure workplace safety in compliance with fire safety standards.

What is the Fire Safety for Managers and Supervisors?
The Fire Safety for Managers and Supervisors course from the American Institute of Safety Professionals provides management-level fire safety training for the leaders who are accountable for fire prevention programmes, fire protection system readiness, and fire emergency response within their facilities and organisations. This is the management companion to the Fire Prevention Plans and Fire Protection course: while that course teaches the fire prevention plan requirements and fire protection system fundamentals, this course teaches how to govern the fire safety programme, lead fire wardens, manage fire protection system maintenance, conduct fire risk assessments, and lead the emergency response when fires occur.
The curriculum covers the manager’s fire safety responsibilities, fire risk assessment methodology, fire prevention programme governance (housekeeping, hot work, electrical, storage), fire protection system management (sprinklers, detection, alarms, extinguishers inspection/testing/maintenance oversight), fire warden programme management (selection, training, duties, drills), emergency response leadership (decision-making during fire events, evacuation command, fire department interface), regulatory compliance management (OSHA 1910.38/39, NFPA, local fire codes, fire marshal inspections), fire investigation leadership, insurance and business continuity considerations, and the fire safety culture that prevents fires through leadership rather than compliance alone. All training is delivered 100 percent online through Microsoft Teams and the American Institute of Safety Professionals LMS.
Upon completion, graduates receive a certificate, wallet card, and transcript, employer-verifiable at amiosp.com/student-verifications.
