Fire Service Leadership Lecture featuring Billy Goldfeder
March 22, 2010 (Oakton Community College - Des Plaines, IL)
 
Chief Billy Goldfeder presents in video, audio, and "Wake Up" lecture an in-depth review of specific and timely fireground events.  His focus on dwelling fires that ended with tragic results is intended to convey lessons learned so that the incidents, and those involved, are never forgotten.

 

Chief Goldfeder delivers in a unique, high-energy style that is professional and respectful. He provides attendees with information that can be applied immediately on the fireground in order to prevent history from repeating itself.

 

The goal of the program is to impress upon firefighters and fire officers the importance of their roles and responsibilities during response and rescue operations.  Case studies are presented in a manner that will educate, entertain, and ensure the safety of all.

 

Participants will not only learn “Everyone Goes Home” but also understand “Who"s in YOUR Wallet?”
