ICMA has released the new Managing Fire and Emergency Services Study Guide, which accompanies the  newly revised ICMA green book, Managing Fire and Emergency Services. The study guide is designed to help fire and emergency services students and those preparing for promotional exams develop the knowledge, skills, and abilities they need to meet present and future challenges in the increasingly complex field of fire and emergency services.

All the review questions in the study guide refer to specific pages in the textbook. The self-study format allows the student to complete the review at his or her own speed and even provides tips on how to make the most of the self-paced study.

Edited by Adam K. Thiel and Charles R. Jennings, Managing Fire and Emergency Services is a comprehensive, practical reference guide and text that illustrates the challenges fire and emergency managers face and describes leading practices that will help your organization meet those challenges head-on.

Key features of this edition:

  • This is the definitive guide for professionals preparing for fire, emergency, or rescue service promotional exams.
  • The book describes the latest regulations, standards, and liability issues related to fire and emergency services.
  • Each chapter presents historical and current information to help students understand the issues at hand and make informed decisions.  
  • 150 sidebars illustrate leading practices drawn from local case studies, expert analysis, and current research.
  • Content is designed to meet the National Fire Academy’s “Fire and Emergency Services Higher Education” (FESHE) model curriculum guidelines for its “Fire and Emergency Services Administration” course.
