DESCRIPTION (Provided by Applicant): The IAFF proposes to continue its nationwide Hazardous Substance Training Program for fire fighters, paramedics and other first responders employed in 30,400 fire departments across the United States. (National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), U.S. Fire Department Profile through 2004, September 2005). In 2004, 75,840 firefighter injuries occurred in the line of duty, a decrease of 3.7 percent from the year before. Fire fighter injuries constituted 36,880 or 48.6 percent of all injuries during foreground operations. An estimated 14,250 occurred during other on duty activities, while 13,150 occurred at non-fire emergency incidents (FMPA, U.S. Firefighter Injuries of 2004). In the course of their work, thousands more first responders are exposed to toxic materials that potentially increase their long-term risk for certain types of cancer, heart-lung damage, leukemia, and other diseases. The IAFF's proven training program strongly and forcefully emphasizes occupational safety and health as part of a comprehensive hazardous materials first responder training plan. Besides meeting the salient demand for federally-mandated hazardous materials first responder training, the IAFF program seeks to fundamentally change fire fighters' knowledge, attitudes and behaviors, causing them to adopt a safer approach to responses throughout their careers. Our Recruit Training Initiative exemplifies this philosophy, and is currently used in numerous fire-rescue departments nationwide. In summary, the IAFF proposes to continue our comprehensive project for both career and volunteer fire fighters with a proven staff of grant management professionals and nationally-acclaimed fire service instructors. The IAFF proposal provides for at least 130 first responder courses every year the project is funded. This training activity is supported by curricula development, continuing education for field instructors, ongoing development of digital and web-based learning methodologies and a comprehensive evaluation plan to track student, course, and institutional changes. The IAFF is the only national organization serving professional fire fighters and enjoys longstanding training partnerships; and unmatched access to over 26,000 fire/rescue departments across the United States. Our training curricula are current, focused and ready to be delivered. This is a state-of-the-art program with a focused safety and health message provided by experienced, committed instructors.

描述（由申请人提供）：IAFF提议继续为消防员，护理人员和其他在美国30,400名消防部门雇用的危险物质培训计划。 （国家消防协会（NFPA），美国消防部门的个人资料，直到2004年9月）。 2004年，在职责范围内发生了75,840名消防员伤害，比前一年减少了3.7％。在前景行动期间，消防战斗机受伤占所有伤害的36,880或48.6％。估计在其他值班活动期间发生了14,250次，而在非火灾紧急事件发生13,150次（FMPA，2004年美国消防员受伤）。在他们的工作过程中，成千上万的急救人员接触到有毒物质，这些材料可能会增加对某些类型的癌症，心肺损害，白血病和其他疾病的长期风险。 IAFF的经过验证的培训计划强烈强调了职业安全和健康，这是一项综合危险材料的一部分。除了满足对联邦危险材料急需培训的显着需求外，IAFF计划还试图从根本上改变消防员的知识，态度和行为，使他们在整个职业生涯中采取更安全的方法。我们的招聘培训计划举例说明了这一理念，目前在全国许多消防部门中使用。 总而言之，IAFF提议继续我们的职业和志愿消防员的全面项目，并拥有批准管理专业人员和全国范围内的消防服务教练的良好人员。 IAFF提案每年为该项目提供资金至少提供至少130个急救人员课程。这项培训活动得到了课程开发，对现场讲师的继续教育，基于数字和Web的学习方法的持续发展以及跟踪学生，课程和机构变化的全面评估计划的持续发展。 IAFF是唯一为专业消防员服务的国家组织，并享有长期的培训伙伴关系；并无与伦比地进入美国26,000多个消防/救援部门。我们的培训课程是最新的，专注的，可以交付。这是一项最先进的计划，其中包含经验丰富，坚定的讲师提供的重点安全和健康信息。
