Training

It is time to collaboratively enhance our safety and efficiency on incident scenes by training as a single cross disciplined TIM team. The National TIM Responder Training Program was developed by responders for responders, and is designed to establish the foundation for and promote consistent training of all responders.

A cross-disciplined group of local TIM trainers will lead interactive discussions through nine modules covering:

  • TIM Fundamentals and Terminology
  • Notification and Scene Size-Up
  • Safe Vehicle Positioning
  • Scene Safety
  • Command Responsibilities
  • Traffic Management
  • Special Circumstances
  • Scene Clearance and Termination
