Fire alarm system training

Fire alarm system training

A fire alarm system requires clear agreements and people who know what their role is. VeiligheidsDienstenCentrum is happy to discuss whether you need user instruction, management support or training on alarm and evacuation procedures.

User instruction

Discuss what employees need to know about alerts, local procedures and safely following the agreed steps.

Management in practice

Discuss roles, checks, the logbook and coordination with maintenance specialists as far as this fits your training.

Alarm and procedures

Clarify how your organization responds to an alert, who is notified and which internal procedure applies.

Connection with BHV (workplace emergency response)

Discuss how the system, BHV and evacuation arrangements can support each other within your organization.

The right training starts with the role

A designated user, administrator, BHV responder or facilities employee does not always need the same information. That is why we start with your installation, roles and local arrangements.

  • The function of the fire alarm system and, where relevant, the evacuation alarm system
  • Recognize alerts and follow the local alarm and escalation procedure
  • Discuss roles around use, management, logbook and coordination
  • Act safely according to your emergency plan and installation instructions
  • Make the connection with BHV and evacuation arrangements

No universal button layout

Operation and resetting depend on your installation, alarm forwarding and local procedures. The training should therefore align with the instructions that apply to your system.

Different types of training

User instruction, management, BHV/evacuation and technical maintenance are separate topics. We discuss in advance exactly which training you need.

Discuss the right BMI training

Indicate which role your participants have, which type of training you are looking for and any specifics regarding your fire alarm system or evacuation alarm system.
