Welcome to Apparatus Equipped w/ Fire Pump (Pumper Operator) Course / Hybrid Version. This class is slightly over the traditional 32 hour classroom version as much of what you would normally be doing in a classroom with the instructor and other students is done on your own independently and requires the reading of the textbook. Registering for the course confirms that you agree to the following terms of the class;
- The course opens on March 29th at 00:01. The course ends and closes on May 31st at 21:00.
- The IFSTA Pumping Apparatus Driver/Operator 3rd Edition is the only text we will be using. You should receive a copy from your Training Officer.
- To Receive an NOCC from the instructor you must complete all assignments prior to and participate in all of the 2 day exercises on May 16th and 17th.
- You’re agency agrees to send with you or have made arrangements with another participating agency/student to provide a Type 1, 2 or 3 apparatus on June 27th and 28th with a qualified apparatus operator/engineer to supervise/coach. It is strongly recommended that to keep the class moving and accomplishing all skills that day that there be no more than 5 students per apparatus.
- All QUIZZES will be completed. There is 1 attempt at each quiz. You will have 2 minutes per question on each quiz accumulated based on the total number of quiz questions. Quizzes are open book. Scoring 90% or better on a quiz gives you a free pass on NOT having to take the TEST for THAT SAME CHAPTER # ONLY. This is an incentive to read the book and do less work. All assignments will still be completed for each chapter.
- If you score less than 90.0% on a chapter QUIZ, you must take the chapter TEST for that same chapter. You must retake the test again if you score less than 80%. You are allowed 1 TEST retake for a total of 2 attempts. Your final attempt is your permanent score even if it’s lower than your first attempt. Again, reading the text is important.
- You must complete the online portion with an accumulative score of 75% or better of all ASSIGNMENTS, QUIZZES and TESTS taken.

Preface
The International Public Safety Leadership and Ethics Institute (IPSLEI) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation organized to support the development of excellence in public safety leadership and organizations. IPSLEI was formed in the spring of 2006 to continue the public safety industry collaborative in leadership and ethics that the California Community College Chancellor’s Office Public Safety Education Advisory Committee initiated with a Carl D. Perkins VETA Grant for the development of a comprehensive program for public safety leadership development.
The original program, known as The California Public Safety Leadership and Ethics Program, originated in 2001. Through the leadership and vision of the California Community College Chancellor’s Office Public Safety Education Advisory Committee, the program gained national attention. This national interest led to the formation of IPSLEI and the expansion of the program beyond California. The United States National Fire Academy endorsed the IPSLEI program, and the United States Fire Administration recognized IPSLEI with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2010.
In the spirit of the original design work, IPSLEI promotes a dynamic blend of unique, humanities-oriented leadership development with a case-study approach to explore the reality of the leadership challenges that public safety professionals face at every level.
IPSLEI continuously seeks the input of public safety and academic professionals throughout the world to maintain an energetic, visionary, and realistic approach to facilitating the growth of excellence in public safety leadership.
It is the desire of IPSLEI that through effective, realistic, and purposeful leadership dialogue and interaction among public safety personnel from all disciplines and at every level, we learn the true meaning of interoperability and create the safest environments for our organizations and our communities. IPSLEI is dedicated to conducting research and analysis in public safety leadership development, creating effective leadership and ethics curricula, and providing facilitator training and excellent support for IPSLEI Facilitators.
Acknowledgements
The International Public Safety Leadership and Ethics Institute (IPSLEI) would like to thank the following organizations for dedicating time and expertise to the development of this curriculum. The input, testing, and feedback from everyone involved have added immeasurable value.

Chapter quizzes are not timed, so participants are encouraged to use their textbook if they are unsure of an answer while completing the quizzes.
Chapter tests are timed, with the time allowed for each test proportional to the number of questions in the test. For chapter tests, the total time allowed accounts for an average of 90 seconds per question.
There will be activities assigned during the course, which the participants will submit to the instructor on or before the last day of the course. Plenty of notice will be given to participants
Half of the class will meet at 09:00 on Friday, April 26 to complete the last activities. The other half will meet on Tuesday, April 30 to complete the last activities.
On the two days listed in item number 7, participants will each present on a topic to the other participants there in that session. Details of that activity will be distributed by March 29th.
This course is going to be run like an adult learning course in which each participant is responsible for setting aside time to work through the course materials. As listed above, the first five chapters must be completed by April 1. That is so that you don’t procrastinate too long. My suggestion for you is to set a goal of completing two chapters per week, so that you have all ten completed by the weekend of April 12th. That would give you two weeks of cushion time.
Once the course activities have been completed and everyone has successfully completed required course testing, a date will be set up for MO Division of Fire Safety certification testing. That will likely take place at the Cottleville FPD in our training room. The state’s certification test for Instructor 1 certification consists of 100 multiple choice questions from their testing bank.
Note: Anything and everything listed in chapters 1 through 10 in the IFSTA Fire and Emergency Services Instructor 9th Edition textbook is fair game for their test. So, taking the time to read the chapters, reviewing the lesson outlines, and reviewing the powerpoint presentations on the IFSTA ResourceOne site is all highly suggested.
In addition to the DFS certification test, once the course has been successfully completed, participants will receive a "task book" from the Division of Fire Safety that they will have to complete within 365 days. We will review that packet on the first day of class, and again on the last day of class as needed.
Throughout this class or course, participants are welcome and encouraged to reach out to the instructor for guidance or clarification on course work. I want all of you to be successful, so please reach out to me if you need assistance.

IN Firefighter Driver Operator General and Pumper
May 2024 at Rensselaer FD
Course Description
Indiana Driver Operator General and Pumper: This class is designed prepare the firefighter for certification testing through classroom learning and hands on training. The student will be expected to read the assigned material before class. We will be handing out quizzes to be completed before class or using IFSTA Moodle. Although there will be classroom presentation, it will focus on information that can’t be covered out in the field. If you don’t understand something you read, the class will begin with a questions and answers session to try and answer those questions. Then there will be an opportunity to go over the quiz that was assigned. We will then discuss certain topics from the book as to how they may apply. The bulk of the time will concentrate on the skills, understanding what is expected, how to obtain the information, applying knowledge learned from the book and evaluating your work. You must attend all classes to be eligible to take the test. If you must miss a day, it is up to you to make up the material. It will be your responsibility to schedule time between you and an instructor to catch up.
Course Logistics
This class is based on the recently updated curriculum for Indiana Driver Operator certification. The book we will use is IFSTA Pumping and Aerial Apparatus Driver/Operator Handbook 3rd ed. You should be able to access an E book from your IFSTA account, so there will not be any hard copies available. Individuals or Fire Departments now may apply for free IFSTA eLibrary subscriptions via https://on.in.gov/ifsta-library-request. Each user must have an IFSTA ResourceOne account to access these publications. ResourceOne accounts can be created via https://moodle.ifsta.org/. Questions regarding the IFSTA eLibrary should be directed to Shelly Elliott.
We will be doing all the driving and such in and around Rensselaer. If several members attend from one department, you will be expected to provide a fire engine from your department. This will allow you to familiarize yourself with your own equipment and give us more than one piece of apparatus to use. Everyone will need to show a valid driver’s license prior to being allowed to participate in the hands-on portion.

Instructor II Topics for Presentation: The instructor II candidates will choose a topic related to fire department training for its crew and officers. It is important to avoid having presentations of the same topics presented in the same course.

Remember there is a 15-minute classroom presentation with a skill demonstration and evaluation.
Have at least a couple ideas for the first evening of the class. We will take time to discuss and decide on topics that evening. If we have topics that could be part of a sequential training, we will get together in small groups for 15 minutes to discuss ideas. Realize, you have to complete your own work.

Preface
The International Public Safety Leadership and Ethics Institute (IPSLEI) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation organized to support the development of excellence in public safety leadership and organizations. IPSLEI was formed in the spring of 2006 to continue the public safety industry collaborative in leadership and ethics that the California Community College Chancellor’s Office Public Safety Education Advisory Committee initiated with a Carl D. Perkins VETA Grant for the development of a comprehensive program for public safety leadership development.
The original program, known as The California Public Safety Leadership and Ethics Program, originated in 2001. Through the leadership and vision of the California Community College Chancellor’s Office Public Safety Education Advisory Committee, the program gained national attention. This national interest led to the formation of IPSLEI and the expansion of the program beyond California. The United States National Fire Academy endorsed the IPSLEI program, and the United States Fire Administration recognized IPSLEI with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2010.
In the spirit of the original design work, IPSLEI promotes a dynamic blend of unique, humanities-oriented leadership development with a case-study approach to explore the reality of the leadership challenges that public safety professionals face at every level.
IPSLEI continuously seeks the input of public safety and academic professionals throughout the world to maintain an energetic, visionary, and realistic approach to facilitating the growth of excellence in public safety leadership.
It is the desire of IPSLEI that through effective, realistic, and purposeful leadership dialogue and interaction among public safety personnel from all disciplines and at every level, we learn the true meaning of interoperability and create the safest environments for our organizations and our communities. IPSLEI is dedicated to conducting research and analysis in public safety leadership development, creating effective leadership and ethics curricula, and providing facilitator training and excellent support for IPSLEI Facilitators.
