Round Tables
Operational, planning and management professionals from fire departments across the province are invited to come together to discuss current and emerging issues within the fire service. Designed after the Metro Fire Planners Conference, this interactive forum has been formatted for participants to share leading practices, seek ideas on how to mitigate challenges they are facing, and offer innovative ideas and solutions that they have found successful. Participants share local and provincial challenges, as well as highlighted best practices and lessons learned with other like-minded fire services.
To ensure that the discussion reviews topics important to our members, participants are asked to forward topics of interest to the OAFC in advance of the roundtable, which builds an intuitive, thought-provoking agenda.
Past Round Table sessions have covered issues related to:
-
Performance measurement and data analysis
-
Organizational planning
-
Staffing and deployment models
-
Health and safety
-
Recruitment
-
Education and training
-
Shared services and regionalization
