Fire Awareness Training, Page 5 Reviews

No summary provided

Not having a native interface to skip or speed up videos is horrible. In fact, videos are horrible on their own. If you want to call them slides, then make them actual slides. I want to read at my own pace, not listen to someone drone on in an unskippable fashion.

You assume we cannot retain information for very long and so have to keep repeating the same course - i am a home worker and so it is mostly irrelevant anyway

too much information that is irrelevant, if you discover a Fire you should just raise the alarm and exit the building, you do not need to know the processes of how a fire starts or spreads, or how to extinguish it, all you need to know is what to do in case of a fire, you will get people who do this online course thinking that they can tackle a fire, without any particle training or the experience of a real fire.

The majority of the information presented was useful, but it is incredibly frustrating to have to wait for the presenter to finish speaking in each video before you can hit the next button. I was able to read and understand the transcript of each section in half the time it took the presenters to read it out which meant I spent twice as long clicking through this than I would have done if I'd been able to just read it at my own pace. I am a teacher which means I am BUSY. I do not have time to waste on this! It would be helpful if there were at least a 'double speed' option for those of us who are native English speakers and don't need to have the information presented at SUCH a slow pace to facilitate our understanding. (I completely understand that there are people who DO need this pace, but I don't appreciate having my time wasted when I'm not one of them). There is also a contradiction near the end. The clip about 'wet chemical' extinguishers says that it is the ONLY type that can be used on a type F fire, but then the next clip claims that 'water mist' extinguishers can also be used on a type F fire. So which is it? Can you only use a 'wet chemical' extinguisher or can you use either?? As always with any ihasco training, the test was a joke. What's the point of doing a test if you're only going to make three or four of the twenty questions challenging while the rest could be answered by anyone with an ounce of common sense regardless of whether they've done the training or not? Either don't bother with the test or actually make it worth doing!

Fire awareness training course was worse than other online trainings I have taken. The woman was highly unengaging and I found it difficult to concentrate as obviously the content is boring, so needs a bit of pizazz to liven it up. I found that the woman also spoke way too slowly and repeated herself lots

Was hard to follow the training as the classes of fire were only explained once and then referred to throughout the rest without reference. Would have been much better to say throughout Class A (xxx); Class B (yyy) so that it was easier to follow.
