Chief executive Ian Moore explains<\/h2>\n<p>The whole world moves forward and change propels us. 100 years ago, you wouldn\u2019t be reading this blog on your phone or your laptop \u2013 it might just be a newspaper column or, even more likely, I\u2019d just tell you my thoughts to your face.<\/p>\n<p>But it isn\u2019t just technology that changes \u2013 so do people. Think about yourself last year, five years ago, even 10 years ago\u2026 are you still 100% exactly the same? The fact is, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/health-safety-news\/much-can-done-improve-future-fire-safety\/34230\/\">the fire industry itself is changing<\/a>. It is changing because of the needs of society and changes in technology and the attitudes and values of everyone involved.<\/p>\n<p>The rise in Health and Safety being a subject \u2013 a whole sector in and of itself, in fact \u2013 has led to the UK leading the way in putting a huge emphasis on being accountable for others. And while other countries around the world may not hold this as a value, the vast majority do. Society is driven by legislative change, and by the need for high standards. People change. Attitudes change. And so do industries and the way they operate.<\/p>\n<p>The fire industry is changing \u2013 and perhaps that really is a good thing. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/health-safety-news\/fire-brigade-criticises-construction-industry-over-fire-safety\/36426\/\">Companies are setting their standards even higher<\/a> than before; they want to offer the highest possible level of customer service; gain a competitive advantage over others in the marketplace; build a brand that is known for being reliable.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the change those companies asked the FIA for was qualifications. \u201cWe need qualifications for fire detection and alarm engineers,\u201d they said. \u201cWe want a robust and formalised education system for our technicians. We want to offer the highest skilled technicians in the marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s see what we can do,\u201d we said, scratching our heads with a brew in one hand and a pen in the other. So yes, the FIA is changing. We\u2019ve now successfully added four new qualifications to our already well-known and much-trusted training portfolio. \u201cWe want these qualifications to be suitable for beginners joining the industry and for people with a bit of experience who want to have proof of their competence,\u201d said the voices of the fire industry.<\/p>\n<p>And that is exactly what we\u2019ve done. Our new qualifications are for everyone, offered nationwide through the same experienced and well-trusted trainers that we\u2019ve had for years. You can get qualified to be an Advanced Designer, an Advanced Installer, Advanced Maintainer, or Advanced Commissioner in fire detection and alarm systems.<\/p>\n<p>That does mean that, yes, we have had to do some shaking up of our own. Some of our old courses will be ending and the new qualification courses will take their place in January 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Our training has just\u2026evolved. We moved forward, changed, developed something that was more suitable for the environment facing 2018 where standards are extremely high. The landscape, as they say, has shifted \u2013 and so businesses need to shift with it. The environment we are in today is different to 10 years ago when the FIA as we know it today was formed from a merger of our two ancestor trade associations.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What\u2019s the difference between doing training and doing this qualification?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ve pretty much just said it. Training is, well, just training. You get the knowledge you need and can effectively carry out what you\u2019ve learned.<\/p>\n<p>Ian Gurling, the FIA Awarding Organisation Manager, said: \u201cThe difference between training and the qualifications can be boiled down to quality assurance. The qualifications have the gravitas offered through external quality assurance in the processes of development, ensuring that qualifications are developed to serve the needs of the industry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI usually describe training with the analogy that you can train a dog to sit: they don\u2019t know why they are sitting, just that they have to. The qualifications provide learning, you understand the knowledge being imparted, how to use that knowledge and why.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A qualification carries prestige with it. It\u2019s like a badge to prove your achievements. In addition, it is fully backed by an Ofqual-recognised Awarding Body (Ofqual is the government authority for exams and qualifications in England. We\u2019re also recognised in Wales and Northern Ireland through their respective government education authorities).<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Are the old FIA training courses really ending?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes. We\u2019re retiring the old fire detection and alarm courses in favour of the qualifications. From January 2018, only the qualifications will be offered and the old fire detection and alarm units will be enjoying their retirement.<\/p>\n<p>But seriously \u2013 no worries. We consulted with industry bodies, employers, and learners to figure out what they wanted on the new courses and used all of that research to develop something new and relevant to 2017 and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>So what you\u2019re learning isn\u2019t \u2018gone\u2019; just different! We\u2019ve supersized everything and beefed it up with lots of juicy extras to get everything you could possibly want to know into one qualification.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What can I expect when studying the qualification pathway?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As you can imagine, the subject of fire detection and alarm systems is a technical one. So naturally, the things you will be studying will be highly technical in nature &#8211; and you will be studying some of it to an A-Level standard. This is what sets them apart from any other training available \u2013 because without that high level of knowledge involved, they wouldn\u2019t be as valuable to you once you\u2019d left the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>However, we will expect that you will have good reading and writing skills, and be prepared to study a high level of technical information in order to prepare for the examinations.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What are the exams like?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Unlike our other courses, the qualification examinations are a formal process. You will not be allowed to refer to any other reference material other than your own test and it will be fully invigilated to prevent any cheating. So you really do need to know your stuff! Trust us when we say you\u2019ll be grateful for memorising it all once you\u2019re out installing or commissioning something at work.<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t panic. The qualifications are achievable and we will help you get there. If you decide to join us, you\u2019ll get all the support you need: comprehensive face-to-face classes, the benefit of a trainer with years of experience and a free resit in the unlikely event that you don\u2019t pass the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fia.uk.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.fia.uk.com<\/a> to find out more.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ian Moore<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>CEO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fire Industry Association (FIA)<\/p>\n<p>Tel: +44 (0)203 166 5002<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:info@fia.uk.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">info@fia.uk.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fia.uk.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.fia.uk.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/FireIndustry\">\u00a0@FireIndustry<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fire Industry Association is evolving \u2013 and so is its training.
