So as I was trawling through www.rfs.nsw.gov.au to find out CABA operator stats I came across this:
http://www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/file_system/attachments/State08/Attachment_20081028_40E52FD3.pdf
It's a grand outline of all the courses offered to those in the RFS, what they aim to achieve and how the jigsaw fits together.
Its interesting to note that they now have a distinction between Bushfire courses and a cut down Grassfire version. Sound familiar anyone?
Not to mention looking at how the PSTP modules line up the SACFS courses is food for thought.
Discuss!
(And SACFS State Training Section please note, I want you to produce one of these documents.)

I did mention this some time ago Numbers - its a good read & is a practical way of documenting what happens in RFS re:training. Thanks

I found something similar to this in my station, seemed outdated tho, looked very 2002-2004ish. Ill go hunt it down again... It seemed to be a PUA course's summary and its relation to CFS.... and yes there was Respond to urban fire in it.

"CLV plus BAO (Breathing Apparatus Operator) certification equates to PUAFIR302A
Suppress Urban Fire – but note that CLV alone does not have a national equivalent."
So if ya do the Village Firefighter + BA youve pretty much got Suppress Urban Fire ey... So in CFS...we are all Wildland Firefighters....

CLV would be Crew Leader, Village. Not just Village.
