WHAT'S NEW!
The purpose of this job aid is to provide Bureau of Land Management (BLM) employees and others responsible for training (referred to as Training Officers in this document), a source document that addresses the processes and responsibilities through which wildland fire suppression and prescribed fire qualifications and training are established and managed within the BLM.
The job aid is designed to be a depository of both corporate (e.g., defensive driving and blood borne pathogens) and incident management training (training required in order to be on the fireline).
