Inside the course

Learn. Practise. Prove it.

Each topic is a short narrated lesson. Hands-on tasks put the knowledge into practice, and a final assessment confirms it has stuck.

The academy needs a learner sign-in.

Seven topics, one clear journey

  1. How fire works
  2. Classes of fire
  3. The UK extinguisher types
  4. The wrong extinguisher
  5. Using one safely
  6. Placement and provision
  7. The law and servicing

Knowledge into practice

  • 7hands-on tasks
  • ▶narrated videos

Topics unlock in order, so learners build understanding step by step, and progress saves between sessions so the course can be done in short bursts.

A clear checkpoint

  • 15questions
  • 85%pass mark

A final assessment follows the seven topics, so Fire Safe Global has a clear record that each learner understood the material.

Built to run itself

Tracked. Automated. Can't be cheated.

The academy does the admin, so Fire Safe Global and its clients don't have to. Every learner's progress is recorded as they go, and every pass is earned.

Progress you can see

Each client gets its own dashboard. Managers see every person's status at a glance: not activated, not started, in progress with topics completed, or passed. It also shows their last activity and certificate. Mandatory courses are marked, anything overdue shows in red, and the whole list downloads as a spreadsheet.

Little to no input needed

A client adds a colleague with a name and work email, picks learner or manager, and the academy does the rest. Courses can be set for everyone in one click. Lessons unlock, progress saves automatically, and the assessment marks itself.

  • Set for everyone
  • Automatic marking

Results you can trust

The course is built so it can't be gamed. Every video has to be watched to the end before its task unlocks. Topics open strictly in order, so nobody can skip to the assessment. The final 15 questions are marked by the system against an 85% pass mark, never self-reported.

The brief

Fire Safe Global needed its fire safety expertise in a form that could be delivered consistently online, without relying on every session being run in person. The course had to be accurate, easy for non-specialists to follow, and show clearly whether each learner had understood it.

Approach

The work started with the subject matter rather than the technology. The material was broken into seven short topics, each with a single clear goal, ordered so each one builds on the last.

  • A logical sequence, from the science of fire through to the law and servicing.
  • Plain-English narration, so learners without a technical background can follow it.
  • Practical tasks alongside the videos, because doing something sticks better than watching it.

The aim was training people finish and remember, not a slide deck they click through.

What was built

  • A branded learning academy at academy.brackenfort.co.uk with learner sign-in.
  • Seven narrated topics that unlock in sequence.
  • Seven hands-on tasks that turn each topic into practice.
  • Saved progress, so learners can stop and pick up where they left off.
  • A 15-question final assessment with an 85% pass mark, marked automatically.
  • Client dashboards with licences, learner and manager roles, mandatory courses, overdue flags, certificates and CSV export.
  • Watch-to-unlock tasks, so every video is seen in full before learners can move on.

The result

Fire Safe Global has a repeatable, roughly 40-minute course that delivers the same quality of training every time and can be rolled out to new learners quickly. It runs with little to no day-to-day input, and every pass is earned.

The same approach works for any organisation with expertise to share: inductions, compliance refreshers, product training or client-facing courses.
