Seminars & Conferences

The primary focus of this program is to deliver required "Annual Fire School Seminars." Scheduled regionally throughout Kansas, these seminars bring "keynote quality presentations" into a one-day seminar format. Speakers are typically nationally recognized experts in the topics and the seminar format allows a full day to expand their presentations into a full day. This highly successful format allows exceptional quality seminars to be delivered to over 500 firefighters per year.

This program also assists fire service organizations to deliver special, "one-time" conferences and short courses for a diverse fire service audience. The Institute cooperates and collaborates with many organizations in the delivery of these events
