Public Safety Training Center

In this class the students will learn about ISO’s Public Protection Classification (PPC) program, the system which ISO uses to review the fire protection capabilities of nearly 48,000 fire districts across the United States. The primary focus will be the survey process including pre-survey preparations, survey methodology and items reviewed, and post-survey procedures and timelines.

The students will be introduced to the information that will be needed to complete the survey as well as pre-survey documents utilized by the PPC field staff. Ample time will be available to discuss, in detail, the process to make the students more comfortable with a PPC field visit.

This class is beneficial for both fire department personnel, as well as water department representatives, emergency communication personnel, and community officials. It is the objective, at the conclusion of the program, for the attendees to feel comfortable and confident with the PPC survey process.
