Introduction to SAVEM Level 1

Completion of Introduction to Level 1 Training Notes is mandatory before attending a Level 1 training day. Existing volunteers will find the modules useful as revision, especially prior to bushfire season, and as an update when information changes.

The series comprises two videos and ten written modules. The SAVEM Training Team recommends watching the Fireground Safety video first before beginning the written modules. The Coordinator’s video (below) should be viewed after completing the first two modules. The written modules are intended to be completed in numerical order at your own pace. There is a large amount of information to work through, designed to maximise the learning opportunity when attending a face-to-face Level 1 training day.

After reading the notes, click on the link to the quiz, which will be automatically assessed. One of the Training team will be in touch within 14 days to advise next steps, and the date of the next SAVEM Level 1 training.

The modules in this unit are:

Videos

  1. Fireground Safety video
  2. Coordinator’s video (below)

  1. Acronyms and terminology
  2. How South Australia responds to emergencies
  3. Principles of Operations
