Burnsville, MN (July 19, 2010) – Firehouse Expo’s training and education will extend well beyond the July 20-24 event dates and past the walls of the Baltimore Convention Center as the entire Firehouse Expo conference will be available in audio format, with select classes available as video, after the event.

Firehouse Expo has partnered with Fire Department Network News Television (FDNNTV) to produce top quality training on demand in video format. FDNNTV will be recording training videos at Firehouse Expo’s largest conference in history. “FDNNTV is the best in the industry. They will allow us to capture our content and present it in a format that will be captivating and motivating for fire professionals to learn,” says Mary Velline, Group Show Manager of the Firehouse Events. “We are proud to be their partner and look forward to delivering our conference to firefighters who may not be able to join us in person.” Topics that will be videotaped include: safety, strategy and tactics, ventilation, mechanics and more. These classes will be presented by industry experts such as: John J. Salka, Jr., Dan Madrzykowski, Michael Daley, Mickey Conboy, Ken Bouvier, Dave McGrail, Gerry Tracy, Bob Barraclough and Alan Saulsbury. The final products will be a combination of conference material, exclusive interviews with instructors, vendors and attendees, and will feature live training from Firehouse Expo’s hands-on training program where applicable.

All the sessions will be available for download at www.FirehouseExpo.com as early as July 31, 2010. Audio and video sessions will be available as individual products or as packaged material that will be created and promoted in an ongoing effort for months after the event.

The FDNNTV family consists of professionals with over 30 years of combined experience in the firefighting industry teamed with media experts in the news service. They have combined the on-demand accessibility of the internet with the traditional anchored news of television to produce FDNNTV.com. For more information, visit www.fdnntv.com.
