FRI

Learning Labs

Attend valuable education with no price tag attached! The IAFC Pavilion (booth #1628) will feature a series of Learning Labs providing short, information-packed sessions.

Whether you drive in for the day or visit the Exhibit Hall as part of your time at FRI, plan to attend the Learning Labs. This dynamic classroom setting is designed to present the facts and then create opportunities for engagement and further discussion in the lounges surrounding the classroom. Learn about new programs and leave with valuable resources.

An Exclusively Unique Opportunity

FRI is not a firefighter training conference - it is an exclusively unique opportunity for company officers and chief officers (and those that aspire to be). You will not learn how to stretch a line or vent a roof at FRI - but what you WILL learn in various diverse dimensions, is how to successfully LEAD and COMMAND those who do.
