Featured Training: Navigating Fire Service Funerals

October 13, 2014

This past weekend, the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial honored 107 line-of-duty deaths, 98 of which occurred in 2013. When we tragically lose a firefighter, the family and department are often unsure of the correct procedures for giving this hero the final respect they deserve. The NVFC has developed the webinar Navigating Fire Service Funerals to explain the steps needed to plan and carry out a fire service funeral. A companion guide is also available for download so departments can have the information on hand in the event a tragedy does occur. This course is offered through the NVFC’s Virtual Classroom.
