Training Programs

TEEX's Emergency Services Training Institute (ESTI) is a leader in year-round training of municipal, industrial and marine firefighters. ESTI also trains emergency response personnel interested in rescue, hazardous materials (HazMat) and nuclear/chemical/biological terrorism courses.

ESTI's training programs and courses are constantly revised and updated to incorporate the latest legal, technological and procedural standards and innovations. Emergency responders taking ESTI courses are kept abreast of the new opportunities and developments in their fields and gain valuable classroom information and hands-on experience to better handle the ever-changing dangers facing fire and rescue personnel.

ESTI trains more than 81,000 emergency response personnel each year from all 50 states and more than 45 foreign countries. All ESTI instructors are certified and have extensive experience in their subject areas.

More than 45,000 students are trained each year at the 297-acre Brayton Fire Training Field near Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. Courses begin with interactive lectures and demonstrations conducted in a classroom setting and progress to extensive hands-on training exercise using realistic full-scale training props and scenarios on the fire training field.

ESTI offers more than 130 courses to clients around the world; many of those courses are tailored for each delivery to address individual client needs and requirements. Courses meet or exceed the highest national standards--including NPQS, NFPA, DoD, US Coast Guard, EPA and OSHA--and are provided through a variety of training programs:
