Level 3 Training

ltdan:
Hi Guys,

Have been advised that all current level 3 courses have been stopped.  CFS are no longer providing this course and are pursuing a new "type" of level 3 course, with updated information.

No time frame and course name has been given for the new course.

bittenyakka:
Yes I have heard this to

one question that has been raised is that apparently level 3 is a requirement for CFB and now there is no level 3 there is a slight difficulty in getting on CFB.

Pipster:
The Level 3 Course is now considered to be out of date, and needs to be re written, hence they have stopped running the course.  While I haven't heard anything specifically, I would figure that there will be a new course written, that would cover urban type fires & similar things....

Level 3 is no longer a requirement of compartment fire fighting, nor is it going to taken into account for Chief Officers Training Award......

From meetings that I've attended I've heard a few headline bits of information none of which gives the full picture. A snap shot of the information is that it going to contain a national unit on suppress rural urban fires and will be made up of a service level course as well. How correct this information is I do not know and I would only use it an an idea not something set in concrete. What bugs me is that we stop offering courses and have a large lag time before new course are introduced

backburn:
I here there was one in the Riverland over the weekend and it went well.
