My background is in fire detection/fixed extinguishing (and the relevant standards) Eli but the trade is going down the toilet and,to be frank,I'm bored rigid and see my ever nearing redundancy on Friday as an opportunity.

Have you checked out "Competency Criteria for Fire Risk Assessors" even though its a draft for public comment. http://bit.ly/jxoXcJ.

http://fire.org.uk/forum/index.php?topic=5426.0#new
All my responses only apply to England and Wales and they are an overview of the subject, hopefully it will point you in the right direction and always treat with caution.

I don't know, never been on one, but I suspect not. If you have a good background in fire safety then I would see the FRA course a good addition for understanding the principles of fire risk assessment.

Allen if ever you are over this side of the Irish Sea I would be happy to put you through your paces for a couple of days working with me on risk assessments to see how you get on. No doubt would learn a fair bit from you as well along the way.

What Kurnal says from me to......

It would be very handy for our firm to have someone that side of the water, let me know how you get on with training.

Allen, Probably October would be next date for one in NI.  I see a couple of nights at Benedicts, but can you remember if we were barred from Thomsons after the female fire-fighter started thumping a bloke?

I notice the shuttering going up already.
Fraid dark glasses cannot disguise embarrassing dance moves.
Swing your hips from side to side slowly and not in sync with your feet movement, bend forward slightly, roll up sleaves but not to far, make fists with elbows at right angles and put on stupid grin.
That should really get the female geriatrics going.
