Live Fire Training Underway in Mashpee
Instructors from the Cape Cod Center for Public Safety Training’s Fire Program Division are conducting four days of live fire training this week at the Mashpee Fire Department using the County’s live fire car prop.
Training within the community allows firefighters to participate while on duty between emergency calls. The live fire car prop simulates real-world conditions, giving personnel the opportunity to practice fire control, hose handling, and overhaul techniques in a controlled environment.
These trainings support both new and experienced firefighters, helping to strengthen skills and readiness across Cape Cod.
Barnstable County provides both classroom and live fire training to all 19 fire departments on Cape Cod. This mobile training program ensures that on-duty, call, and volunteer personnel can access hands-on training without leaving their communities.
