PPV Training System

Tempest created one of the first PPV training programs and still one of the best. The Tempest PPV training system is an integrated curriculum designed and written by Dr. Timothy Brady, of California State University, and based on the experience and knowledge of more than 20 industry professionals. It includes an orientation manual by John Mittendorf, Battalion Chief (Ret.) of the Los Angeles Fire Department and other industry professionals, an instructors manual for basic and advanced PPV applications, six videos on DVD, student workbooks, instructional overhead transparencies and presentation images on CD.

Instructor’s Manual
The core of the training program is the easy-to-use instructor’s manual. Section 1 deals with basic PPV applications while Section 2 addresses advanced PPV techniques, including High-rise, HazMat and Aircraft incidents. Each includes step-by-step instructions for both the trainer and class.

Six Student Workbooks
Each training package comes complete with basic and advanced student workbooks, which are coordinated with the instructor’s guide. Three copies of each workbook are included.

These workbooks outline various course objectives and provide students with specific guidelines and procedures regarding PPV. Self-testing materials also appear as part of each unit review.

55 Color Slides/Overheads
As a teaching aid, the training program includes 55 color slides and transparencies which correspond to the instructor’s guide.

Orientation Manual
Written by John Mittendorf, Battalion Chief Los Angeles Fire Department, and other industry professionals, the Tempest PPV training program includes an orientation manual designed to present an overview to individuals as a PPV introduction.
