FIRE DRILL FACILITATION
A Fire Drill Facilitation will provide practical training on emergency evacuation procedures and the use of the exit facilities for all building occupants. We work with our clients to perform practice fire drills in a frequency that allows them to meet National Fire Code standards.
Fire Drill Frequency
The fire code has clear regulations around the running of regular fire drills for buildings and properties:
- Fire drills must be held at intervals no greater than 12 months
- Greater drill frequency must be seen in schools, daycares, residential care facilities, high-rise buildings, and laboratories
- All supervisory staff must receive training in fire drill processes and execution.
General Course Description
At Fire Plan Strategies, we offer training and facilitation of fire drills for businesses or buildings of any size. We train your supervisory staff on what to do in an emergency situation. The general training program includes:
- A lecture or presentation
- Handout material for future reference
- A live drill rehearsal
- Post drill debriefing
- The creation of a detailed schedule for your building that meets all frequency requirements
After Hour Drills
At times it may be necessary to hold additional fire drills outside the normal working hours for the benefit of employees on different shifts or unavailable at the scheduled times. Emergency response procedures may change with the level of staffing. All persons with designated responsibilities in the fire plan must be aware of their duties.

Fire Drills & Training
Am I required to run fire drills, and how often?
According to the fire code, fire drills are required at least once a year for most occupancy types, with the frequency depending on building use and risk level. Regular drills ensure occupants are familiar with evacuation procedures, improve safety readiness, and confirm that fire safety systems function properly.
Do I need to provide my staff with fire extinguisher training, and how often?
Employees responsible for fire safety procedures must be properly trained in fire extinguisher use. While the fire code emphasizes the importance of training, the specific frequency may depend the province. We recommend annual training or as needed, based on employee turnover and your industry’s specific risks.
Do I need to provide my staff with Fire Warden Training, and how often?
The fire code requires designated individuals assisting with evacuations to receive appropriate instruction. We recommend Fire Warden Training annually to equip wardens with the skills needed to lead orderly evacuations, communicate effectively, and assist occupants during emergencies.
Who delivers your training, and are they credentialed?
Our trainers are certified fire safety professionals with extensive experience in emergency procedures. They hold credentials recognized by fire authorities and combine classroom and hands-on training methods.
How long does the training last?
Typical training sessions last between one and two hours, depending on the complexity of the material and the level of customization required.
Can your training be customized for our company’s needs?
Absolutely! Our training is tailored to your building layout, industry risks, and staff roles. We can include specific evacuation routes, site-specific equipment use, and scenario-based drills.

Can you train staff across multiple sites or provinces?
Yes, we specialize in multi-site training programs tailored to each location. This ensures consistent safety standards and compliance across all sites.
Do you offer maintenance services for fire safety equipment or systems?
