About the course

Our BASIC FIRE FIGHTING course (F2) is a step up from our General Fire Awareness course and entails revision of all knowledge gained in the F1 course, as well as additional fire fighting techniques and how to apply them in a safe and correct manner. Increasing one's knowledge and skills in fire safety is only going to mean better conduct in an emergency. Although fire fighting tips can always be gathered through common sense and a few general instructions, too many lives are lost and too much property is damaged every year in South Africa to simply rely on instinct. At MurrayLouw, we offer comprehensive fire awareness training for emergency situations.
