Most fire service officers have had very little training in managing the scene during a Mayday call. Even if they have been exposed to such training, few officers have had to actually be in the Command role and manage the Mayday scene enough times to gain confidence. This course is designed to be all "hands-on" repetition of the management sequence in order to instill the officer with confidence so that they have the skills to face such a chaotic situation.
 
Battalion Chief Kevin Sehlmeyer of the Grand Rapids Fire Department has designed this full-day course. He has put it into practice within his own Department since every Company Officer and above in the GRFD has had to manage Mayday calls during training scenarios.
