Fire Warden & Fire Marshal Course Overview
Our Fire Warden Training and Fire Marshal Training courses are designed for employees responsible for fire safety in the workplace. Compare self-paced online, live online and classroom training covering fire prevention, evacuation procedures, fire hazards and the responsibilities of a fire warden or marshal.
Fire warden training is suitable for employees who have been appointed to take on additional fire safety responsibilities in the workplace, as well as anyone who may be expected to help during an evacuation or fire emergency.
The course is particularly suitable for:
Appointed fire wardens or fire marshals
Managers, supervisors and team leaders
Facilities and building management staff
Security and reception staff
Employees involved in emergency or evacuation procedures
Businesses training several members of staff to support their fire safety arrangements
There are no formal entry requirements, so the course is also suitable for employees who are taking on fire safety responsibilities for the first time.
Online, Live Online & Classroom Training
Choose the learning format that works best for you or your team, with self-paced online, trainer-led virtual and classroom or on-site options available.
Online Fire Marshal Course
Complete your fire marshal course online at your own pace in approximately 2 hours. The training covers workplace fire safety, fire prevention, evacuation procedures and the responsibilities of appointed fire wardens and marshals. Complete a 20-question multiple-choice assessment and answer at least 14 correctly to pass.
Live Online Training
Join a scheduled trainer-led session remotely, combining the convenience of online learning with live instruction and the opportunity to ask questions.
Classroom & On-Site Training
Attend classroom training or arrange on-site delivery for your workplace. These sessions take approximately 3 hours and are suitable for individuals and organisations training multiple employees.
Whichever format you choose, you’ll gain the same certificate. The difference is simply how the training is delivered and how the assessment is completed.
Course Content & Learning Outcomes
The course gives you the knowledge to help prevent fires, identify workplace fire risks and respond appropriately in an emergency. You will learn about fire safety procedures, evacuation, fire-fighting equipment and the day-to-day responsibilities of an appointed fire warden or marshal.
Topics covered include:
Fire safety legislation
Fire warden and marshal responsibilities
The fire triangle and how fires spread
Common workplace fire hazards and risks
Fire prevention measures
Classes of fire
Fire extinguishers and safety equipment
Emergency and evacuation procedures
Fire safety briefings for staff
Fire Marshal & Fire Warden Certificate
After successfully completing the course and passing the assessment, you will receive a CPD certificate confirming that you have completed your Fire Marshal / Fire Warden training.
The certificate is valid for 3 years from the date of completion and can be kept as part of your personal training record or used by an employer as evidence of completed workplace fire safety training.
To pass the course, you must answer at least 14 out of 20 multiple-choice questions correctly. Your certificate confirms training covering workplace fire safety, fire prevention, evacuation procedures and the responsibilities of fire wardens and marshals.
Fire Marshal Certification
Fire marshal certification provides evidence that you have completed relevant training and successfully passed the course assessment. To keep your training current, you should complete the course again when your 3-year certificate expires.
Fire Marshal vs Fire Warden: What’s the Difference?
In many UK workplaces, the terms 'fire marshal' and 'fire warden' are used interchangeably. Both usually refer to an appointed person who helps support workplace fire safety, including fire prevention, evacuation procedures and helping people leave the premises safely during an emergency.
Some employers divide the responsibilities differently between fire marshals and fire wardens, but there is no single standard distinction between the two job titles that applies to every workplace. The exact duties should reflect the organisation’s fire risk assessment, emergency procedures and the responsibilities assigned by the person responsible for fire safety.
Is Fire Warden Training a Legal Requirement?
Not every workplace is legally required to appoint someone with the job title “fire warden”. However, employers and other Responsible Persons must provide appropriate fire safety arrangements, information and training, and may need to appoint competent people to assist with fire safety duties depending on the workplace and its fire risk assessment.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the Responsible Person must take appropriate fire precautions, provide employees with suitable fire safety training and, where necessary, nominate competent people to help implement fire-fighting and evacuation measures.
In practice, many organisations appoint trained fire wardens or fire marshals to help meet these responsibilities. The number required and the duties assigned will depend on factors such as the size and layout of the premises, the number of occupants, working patterns and the findings of the fire risk assessment.
On-Site Fire Marshall Training for Groups
Need to train several employees? Fire Marshal and Fire Warden training can be delivered on-site at your workplace, making it easier to train teams together without staff travelling to a training centre.
On-site training takes approximately 3 hours and can be arranged for businesses and organisations across the UK. Training can be delivered around your team's requirements, with successful learners receiving the same CPD certificate as other delivery options.
