Wonderful Class
Type of Service: Career Survival Training
Rank of Commenter: Captain
What an exceptional class! Career Survival Training goes above and beyond what is delivered in a typical fire service class. This class fixes many of the things wrong with the usual – and often just plain awful – “scared straight” approach to reducing risks related to behavior in the firehouse. With a mix of humor and heart, Eric ultimately crafts a story of why kindness, fairness, grace, and compassion serves all of us. I’m not leaving his class motivated by fear of consequences, but by an honest and earnest desire to protect and care for the people I work with. One of the top three fire service classes I have taken in my 15+ years.

Message Landed With Our Group
Type of Service: Career Survival Training
Rank of Commenter: Captain
I am very interested in making the fire service a place where new hires, that are not of the old-school firefighter’s mold, can thrive. In the past when we have had training about how to be a supportive work environment and it has gone poorly. I believe your message landed well with our group. Your message will help me be better. You clearly know us and we know and trust you as well. I feel hope that we can build an environment that I will be proud of. I am thankful that you came to visit us.

Passion For The Topic Was Obvious

Eric and Brian,
Just a note to let you know how much I appreciated your Career Survival class message when you were in Fargo, ND this week. I thought your format of an Operational problem next to an Administrative problem provided good context for those in class to understand the issues. I also felt the issues you brought up were current and pertinent.
Your presentation was important, informative, and entertaining enough to hold everyone’s attention. You had great examples and stories that aligned with the message and your passion for the topic was obvious.
Thanks for coming to Fargo and I hope to sit in again sometime.

Great Job Guys!

The presentation was very well prepared, organized, and captivating. They did a great job of keeping me interested throughout the whole 3 hour time slots, which I believed allowed them hit home the message. I believe the main point was for everybody to realize the importance of professionalism and integrity in the work environment. This hasn’t always been the case with the fire service, but we as supervisors need to know the importance of our roles and know that we can and should make a positive difference to help push the change.
Great job guys.

We had the distinct pleasure to have Eric and Brian present Career Survival Training to our King County Fire Chiefs Leadership Summit in September. I had seen the presentation, previously, at FRI and was impressed with the interaction between Eric and Brian and how professional they are in delivering some very insightful content. I was very impressed, and pleasantly surprised, that the second time I saw, essentially the same presentation, I was able to get even more out of what they had to say. I can’t say that for any other presentation I’ve seen.
I wholeheartedly endorse the Career Survival Group.
