Northeastern Fire Summit 2023
March 3, 2023 - March 5, 2023
The Northeastern Fire Summit is a three-day conference. In 2023, it’s going to be packed full of firehouse culture, firefighter behavioral/mental health awareness, leadership on and off the fireground, commercial fireground tips and tactics, and you just might learn how to mix the perfect old fashioned while you’re here. A vast array of topics will be covered by these instructors who are recognized as leaders in their own areas across the country and beyond.
Saturday’s tactical track leans heavily towards an emphasis on the different aspects of something not often talked about, but something we all deal with, the commercial fireground.
This year’s addition of a leadership track is designed to provide chief officers, company officers, and aspiring officers with an understanding of how to think differently about several leadership and performance topics both in the firehouse and on the fireground.
We have put together a line-up from across the country of top-notch group of instructors who get it. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn from the best at THE best fire conference in New England.
