Updated for the 2019 edition of NFPA 72, the new Notification Appliances Online Training covers both audible and visible notification appliances.
Audible and visible notification can be used to trigger the desired occupant behavior, so the success of every system depends on their correct application. Based on the 2019 edition of NFPA 72®, National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code®, Notification Appliances Online 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 visible signaling.
Work at your own pace through lessons from the same experts who helped develop the 2019 edition of NFPA 72. When discussing audible and visible 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
