Understanding the basics

What is Fire Marshal Training?

Fire Marshal Training prepares employees to take on the role of a workplace fire warden — the person who helps prevent fires, raises the alarm if one breaks out, and supports a safe, orderly evacuation. The role is a legal cornerstone of UK workplace fire safety, and the training itself is short, practical, and designed for non-specialists.

A typical course covers how fires start and spread, the main causes of workplace fires, how to use the right extinguisher on the right type of fire, evacuation procedures, and the day-to-day responsibilities of a fire warden. Most learners are competent within 60 to 90 minutes, and the certification you receive is recognised by employers, insurers and enforcement authorities across UK industries.

Fire Marshal Training is part of Online CPD Academy — a UK provider of accredited online training spanning fire safety, health & safety, first aid and more. Read the latest fire safety guides and statistics →

Who needs one

Fire safety training for every workplace

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, every UK employer with five or more staff must appoint a sufficient number of competent persons to assist with fire prevention and evacuation — and those people need formal training.

Offices & retail

Designated wardens, office managers and floor leads in any commercial premises.

Schools & education

Teachers, caretakers and site staff responsible for pupils and visitors during an evacuation.

Warehouses & factories

Supervisors and operatives in higher-risk industrial and storage environments.

Healthcare & care homes

Staff supporting vulnerable people who may need Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans.

Construction sites

Site managers and operatives managing hot works and temporary fire risks.

Hospitality & venues

Pubs, hotels, restaurants and event spaces with members of the public on site.

5+ employees? Employing five or more staff triggers a legal duty to appoint trained fire wardens under UK law. Smaller employers often nominate one or two; larger sites typically need a warden per floor or department.
