Introduction to Passive Fire Systems
$0.00 (inc GST)
This course is fully discounted until 30 September 2026.
Passive fire protection is one of the most critical and often overlooked systems in a building. It is designed to slow the spread of fire and smoke, buying valuable time for evacuation and emergency response. It is built into walls, floors, ceilings, doors and service penetrations, and can be easily compromised during day-to-day construction work.
This practical, introductory course is tailored for plumbers, electricians, plasterers, builders and supervisors working across Class 2 to 9 buildings with limited knowledge in how to incorporate passive fire safety into designs and build work.
You’ll gain the confidence to:
- Identify common passive fire systems on site.
- Read and interpret passive fire protection (PFP) requirements on plans.
- Select compliant materials with ease.
- Protect fire systems during your work to avoid costly rework, delays and defects.
By the end of the course, you’ll understand your responsibilities and be better equipped to deliver safer, compliant projects.
As you work through the course you will have the opportunity to answer some questions and progressively check your understanding. Complete the assessment quiz and the feedback activity to obtain your CPD certificate of completion.
Duration: 1 hour
Delivery: Online (self-paced)
Access period: 6 months access from the day of enrolment
