Consistency and Creativity in Company-Level Training

In this episode of Generation Engine, seasoned fire service veterans Todd Edwards and Anthony Rowett break down the essentials of effective company-level training. Drawing on decades of frontline experience, they emphasize that the biggest obstacle isn’t resources but consistency. Regular, short, hands-on drills—not lengthy punishments—build the culture necessary for success. Edwards and Rowett stress respect between junior and senior firefighters, leaning on shared knowledge rather than rank alone to boost buy-in. From mastering hose stretches to using everyday call scenes for quick size-up drills, they demonstrate how opportunities to train are everywhere, even amid busy shifts.
