Wildfires swept through the Los Angeles area in January, putting interagency coordination, mutual-aid agreements, and real-time decision-making under extreme operational and public pressure.
In this live panel discussion, Southern California fire chiefs will share their experiences from the firestorm, delving into the operational, strategic, and leadership challenges that any large-scale fire incident presents.
The webinar will go over the entire life cycle of major emergency response, including pre-incident planning and public messaging, deployment and resource management, and post-incident issues like firefighter mental health and other operational hazards. Each panelist will share key takeaways from their agency’s experience to assist departments of all sizes in improving their preparedness for complex, low-frequency, but high-impact incidents.
Don’t pass up this chance to hear directly from the chiefs who navigated the chaos — and what they want every fire officer to know about preparing for large-scale incidents in their own jurisdictions.
