VentEnterSearch’s own Jimm Walsh and Eric Wheaton will both be presenting at the 2014 Orlando Fire Conference in Orlando, Florida. The conference runs from February 27th-March 1st, 2014 and offers both a leadership symposium as well as a hands on training (HOT) program.

Jimm Walsh will be presenting on the importance of Communication on the Fireground and in the Firehouse on Saturday March 1, 2014. This class includes portions of Jimm’s popular leadership programs: From the Jump Seat to the Front Seat, and From the Firehouse to the Fireground.

The Associate Editor of VentEnterSearch, Eric Wheaton, will be teaching a segment of the Fire Fundamentals HOT class titled Can Confidence. This class is designed to build confidence on one of the most often neglected tools found on nearly every fire apparatus, the 2 1/2 gallon water extinguisher. The “Can” can be an extremely effective lifesaving tool by allowing a well trained fireman to quickly apply water between fire and victims. Attendees will learn proper filling and pressurization steps, how to build homemade carrying straps and other useful “Can” modifications. The class will also cover valuable skills on carrying and searching with the “Can.” Finally, attendees will perform live fire attacks with nothing more than a “Can” and witness the effect of the “Can” on pre-flashover conditions.
