Book Description
The results were compiled and the transference of knowledge to behavior evaluated. All of the organizations that responded indicated that traditional services were routinely provided. However, the use of effective management methods to direct these deliveries was much less than 100% and the use of these techniques was even lower when dealing with nontraditional services. This indicated a reluctance to apply the new skills, especially in areas of less comfort and perceived relevance. It was recommended that the NFA continue to provide the excellence in training material while trying to further increase transference through techniques that assist the trainees in skill application.

Book Description
Dr. Fleming's new book -- drawing from an array of business and administrative disciplines -- provides a solid conceptual foundation for understanding, meeting, and exceeding the expectations of organizational stakeholders and preparing for professional, personal, and organizational success in fire administration. The book addresses the various course objectives and learning outcomes for both the Introduction to Fire and Emergency Services Administration course within the FESHE Associate's Model Curriculum and the corresponding bachelor's course, Fire and Emergency Services Administration. Effective Fire & Emergency Services Administration will be an invaluable resource for students (both undergraduate and graduate), and current fire and emergency services personnel of all ranks who are preparing for career advancement, including promotional examinations. It also will serve as a very useful reference for current fire and emergency service operational and administrative officers.
