(latest NCVER data)When a fire starts in a workplace, the first few minutes often depend on whether people know which extinguisher to grab and how to use it; CPPFES2005 Demonstrate first attack firefighting equipment develops the ability to demonstrate and explain that equipment to clients. This unit gives RTOs a practical option for fire protection programs where learners lead client demonstrations, with CPPFES2005 learning materials supporting simulated fire scenarios.
Learners develop skills in explaining the purpose of different extinguishers, identifying fire classes, selecting suitable extinguishers, demonstrating safe extinguishment, operating and rewinding fire hose reels, checking for leaks and using fire blankets on simulated fires.
Start with our CPPFES2005 RTO training materials rather than building fire demonstration content and scenarios internally. Purchase RTO materials and give trainers CPPFES2005 training resources that support safe simulated fire delivery.
Supplied as a coordinated set, the CPPFES2005 RTO training materials provide a prepared foundation for demonstrating first attack firefighting equipment. Purchase RTO materials to save development effort and start with CPPFES2005 training resources ready for contextualisation.
Check the latest unit requirements on training.gov.au before delivery. Your team should contextualise and validate these CPPFES2005 training materials for its learner cohort, delivery model and selected compliance environment. Use the supplied mapping as a starting point when reviewing your CPPFES2005 materials against the Standards for RTOs.
CPPFES2005 Demonstrate first attack firefighting equipment covers demonstrating and explaining to clients how to use portable fire extinguishers, fire hose reels and fire blankets correctly and safely in emergencies. It applies to entry-level fire protection workers completing routine tasks under the direction of more experienced workers.
The unit addresses five core areas:
The tasks cover class A, C or F fires, including one with potentially energised electrical equipment, plus class B and class D fires, a hose reel attack over 10 metres and a fire blanket attack. Your team should arrange a safe, approved fire training ground or simulator.
Yes. The editable files let your team include fire ground rules, emergency procedures and equipment brands used in your delivery where contextualisation is permitted.
The Class Activities Book includes practice in plain-language explanations of extinguisher types and fire classes before learners complete live demonstrations. These RTO resources are designed to build both technical knowledge and communication confidence.
No. They are developed with training package and safety requirements in mind, but your organisation remains responsible for validating them and meeting any state licensing requirements.
Yes. Lifetime updates are available under the applicable product terms, so qualifying updates can be accessed without purchasing again.
