SECTION 500.008 INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE EVOLUTION
PURPOSE
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance and consistency on an evolution
when performing a manipulative skill during an academy.
APPLICATION
Individual Performance Evolutions (IPEs) are the basic foundations of an evolution
skills competency training within the Fresno Fire Department (FFD or Department).
Department members should be evaluated on the ability to complete firefighter trainee
skills in an efficient and competent method. It is expected firefighter trainees follow
IPEs closely as they develop their skills. Performance is evaluated on whether a safe,
efficient, and competent operation is completed.
OPERATIONAL POLICY
This section intentionally left blank.
OPERATIONAL GUIDELINE
To maintain consistency with the Office of the State Fire Marshal State Fire Training
(SFT) Firefighter 2019 standard changes, the Department’s IPE process has been
modified to meet SFT requirements. Every IPE is reviewed, edited, and brought in
line to match SFT process and meet the needs of FFD training standards. IPEs are
the same for both academy and the Department. Scores for IPEs are only pass or
fail.
IPEs are available to firefighter trainees through FFD’s Target Solutions Learning
Management System (LMS). Completed IPEs are uploaded into the firefighter
trainee’s academy folder. A scanned original copy should be kept by the Training
Division as a historical document. The IPEs should be treated the same as a written
exam and only shared with the firefighter trainee and their supervisor.
