Jamie McAllister of Halliwell Fire Research leading a completely full class on the basics of WUI Risk Assessment & Mitigation for the Fire Service at #EduCode2025. This 8-hour course is the product of hundreds of hours of consulting and volunteer input from fire protection engineering, fire service, and related communities over the last several years. It draws on open-access case studies and research from the fire protection engineering community, like the Camp Fire Case Study produced by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is what you see featured in the slide in this image. This critical educational content helps empower first responders, code officials, plan reviewers, fire marshals, and many others to better protect and prepare their communities in the face of growing wildland-urban interface fire risks. It wouldn’t have been possible to create this course—and help bridge the fire service and fire engineering communities—without funding received by the SFPE Foundation from the FEMA Fire Prevention & Safety Grant program. These programs are essential to making sure the people who protect our communities have the knowledge and resources needed to do so. We’re proud to be able to work with the outstanding people at USFA, National Fire Academy and the International Code Council to bring this training to as many fire service and related beneficiaries as possible. Look out for future deliveries of this course near you, featuring our other co-lead instructors, Jennifer Hoyt, P.E. and @Jeremy Souza from Code Red Consultants.
