The training program focuses on equipping officers and staff with basic knowledge of fire prevention and rescue work; skills in handling situations when fires, explosions, and accidents occur; skills in using on-site firefighting equipment; and simultaneously enhancing the ability to coordinate quickly and effectively with local authorities.

In addition to theoretical content, trainees also directly participate in practical drills based on simulated scenarios closely resembling the specific conditions at the conservation facility. The plans are scientifically developed, ensuring safety while still fully reflecting the complexity of rescue operations in an environment with many flammable elements and the presence of wild animals.
