Bøker av Steven Mitchell

We are all little islands, Alone in the tumultuous sea. A woman sees illnesses as colours. A jaguar escapes from a zoo. In the periphery, a ghost takes revenge. A day trip to see a whale. An arsonist brother terrorises a town. A man with a secret wakes as a beast. Feathers fly in a salt marsh shack. Two dead friends get hitched. Birds perch upside-down. A bus driver is haunted by noise. Elvis duets with a young fan. A man rants at the stars. A helium addiction is overcome. Steven Mitchell's debut collection of short stories blends warmth and humour with tragedy, illness, and death, while introducing us to a cast of characters experiencing loneliness in their own unique way.

This manual is a great road map to developing and implementing an effective Fire Service Field Training Program. Such a program will aid a Fire Department in continuing the post academy training for a new firefighter recruit. The process can also be successfully used for departments that do not use an academy for initial training. This manual will explain the purpose and role of the program within the Fire Department. It briefly touches on communication concepts that are important to success. The manual explains adult learning principles, proper approaches to training and putting together a training plan. The Fire Service Field Training Program Manual will detail in depth the using of the Coach-Pupil teaching concepts used to train firefighters in the field, or on-the-job. The Program gives the Instructor examples of how to handle recruit decisions and the evaluation process. At the end of the manual it will all be tied together with discussion on development of the FSFTP binders and the roles of the various ranks and positions within the Fire Department to ensure an effective program. Using this FSFTP Manual as a Guide, you will be able to develop and implement an improved recruit training program.
