Questions about Global Fire Warden training

How long is the Global Fire Warden course?

It's made up of 4 microlessons, each under 5 minutes. Learners can finish it in one sitting or spread it over a few days, and 5Mins sends reminders until it is done.

Is there a certificate?

Yes. Learners get a certificate of completion once they finish every microlesson and complete the situational test. The record is stored in 5Mins for audits.

What's the difference between this course and Fire Wardens (UK)?

Both cover the same fire warden duties. This version isn't tied to UK fire safety law, so it suits teams in different countries. Fire Wardens (UK) covers UK law.

What does a fire warden do?

A fire warden helps prevent fires with regular checks of their area, and in an emergency helps people leave safely, checks the area is clear and reports to whoever is in charge of the evacuation.

How often should staff take fire warden training?

Train fire wardens when they are appointed, and refresh it regularly and after any change to your building or procedures. In 5Mins you can set the course to repeat, for example every 12 months.

Can I try the course first?

Yes. Request a free sample lesson and book a short demo with our team. After your demo, we'll share sample lessons with you so you can see the format for yourself.
