I was looking over Brotherhoodinstructors.com got some pretty cool stuff on there.
It is basically a firefighter safety & survival course that pushes you to your physical and mental limits. Critical decision making and adaptability in high-stress environments is a key part of the training. It is over 90% hands-on (very realistic). Over the 30 years of the program, the pass rate is approximately 60%. It is a difficult class, but very educational and very rewarding.
Checkout the video I posted "GSD Class 37" and you can checkout our website at We are in the process of building a new site but the old one still has some info about the program.
Thanks,
Hull
