About us
The First Global Wildland Fire Program
This is the First Online Wildland Fire Training Program offering quality training that is accessible to all sector operators anywhere in the world.
TEP – The Emergency Program arose in view of the global challenge of 21st century wildland fires affecting all territories of the world as they’re constantly changing and becoming faster due to the climate emergency.
Considering these new scenarios, traditional methods are no longer enough to handle this challenge meaning effective solutions need to be offered.
This situation makes knowledge fundamental and that’s why we’ve created a platform with learning content through an innovative training program with a global approach based on real case studies and new strategies to meet every need.
“The TEP – The Emergency Program mission is to make innovative training accessible to all wildland fire professionals around the world with new strategies that seek to meet the needs of 21st century wildland fires all while being applicable to the target professionals’ job”
Moreover, we’re supported by collaboration from the University of Lleida (UdL) and Vallfirest.
