Question: What level of fire safety training do people in schools and universities get these days ? The first ever decent practical lab fire safety course I went on was as a research student. Undergraduates got little or no fire safety training.
Answer: Speaking from my standpoint, very little. However, we did get a general H & S talk just before starting our final year projects, and all who attended (when I did) were either postgrads, or (as in my case) people who had returned from a year in industry. In my case, we did a day or so session whilst on placement, laying down company procedures for this kind of thing. I assume the other people on placement (at different companies may have had similar, but don't know for sure).
