Fire has been a part of our needs in life and we now cannot live without it. It has been of much use now to us since man learned of its potentials and usage. But then again, uncontrollable spread of fire such as in historical building fire will lead to damage of our properties, our cultural heritage and worse, loss of life. Fire safety is a field where fire safety designs were designed for the sake of fire prevention and also whenever there is an event of fire; it functions as to control the spreading of fire and also for safe evacuation of the people. Fire safety engineering plays a significant role in the development of cost-effective fire-safety designs for buildings, manufacturing plants and industrial operations as it can provide a systematic approach to assessing fire safety and minimizing the risks associated with fire. Historical buildings reflect the state of the art at the time of their construction. Materials were used that are often viewed critically today with regard to fire safety. The biggest challenge is to ensure optimal fire protection of the building structure and the interior (stucco, ceiling and wall paintings, panelling, furniture and chandeliers) as well as the historical artifacts inside a building, without affecting their aesthetic value and historical integrity. Fire safety in all buildings is a critical topic, but fire protection in historical buildings is also of great cultural importance. Fire and the consequential damage can result in monetary losses that run into the tens of millions of Euros and the loss of irreplaceable historical artifacts. Restoring these damaged buildings and items can be very costly and sometimes impossible. The experts and staff working at Fire Brigade and Disaster and Emergency Unit located in cultural and historical protected cities don’t have enough up-to-date knowledge and competencies in terms of Fire Safety Management (Prevention, Preparedness and Response). In this context, competencybased training module is an approach, which ensures that staff becomes competent and remains competent and that experience and changing demands are incorporated in the Fire Safety Management involved. There is a need to identify and tackle Fire Safety Management in cultural and historical protected cities such as Safranbolu (TR), Frederikssund (DK), Marche (IT) and Ljubljana (SI). In order to decrease the effects of fire accident and irreplaceable historical artifacts, the task is to examine best practices in this area and thereby to develop a professional profile and training modules who can manage together with local policymakers’ fire brigades, security and health institutions, VET, education, and emergency and safety concerns. In particular the main aim of the FireSkills is to create a new profile and develop a Training Modules (EQF level 8) for experts/staff working specific sectors such as Fire Safety, Fire Accident, Security, Health, Emergency, Crisis Management and Firefighting in cultural and historical protected cities. The second main of the FireSkills project is to expand awareness and improved know-how, skills and knowledge of the fire safety management for inhabitants living in cultural and historical protected cities in terms of preparing user guide and organizing training activities. In this study, will given informations about a model implementation developing for these fields, in conjunction with an Erasmus+ project.
