The NFPA 72: Notification Appliances (2016) Online Training is a building block of the CFPE Learning Path and CFI-I Learning Path—a series of web-based training that can help you plot a successful journey to advanced certification.
Notification Appliances Online Training covers both audible and visible notification appliances.
Audible and visual notification can be used to trigger the desired occupant behavior, so the success of every system depends on their correct application. Notification Appliances training covers appliances that are used to alert and inform building occupants and fire alarm system users. You'll also learn about special terminology used for audible signaling and for visual signaling.
Work at your own pace through lessons from the same experts who helped develop the 2016 edition of NFPA 72®, National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code®.When discussing audible and visual signaling, the lessons will cover requirements for both public mode and for private mode notification. This training will also provide an overview of other types of notification appliances that you might use in special applications.

- Define common terms associated with notification appliances.
