Fire safety specialists programme

The TAPS programme for fire safety specialists builds on the relevant subjects from the SO programme.

Fire safety officers could move, depending on the needs in their region and their own areas of interest and expertise, onto one or more specialist programmes.

These include technical fire safety, fire investigation and community education.

After these programmes are undertaken, fire safety officers could – again based on the needs in their region – undertake higher education in the technical and investigative areas.
