Members receive training opportunities at no cost through the Manitoba Emergency Services College in Brandon. Springfield also frequently hosts training courses, helping reduce travel and lodging costs for members attending sessions typically held in Brandon.
Medical First Responders Program
Each fire hall operates a Medical Responder Program to support medical emergencies across the municipality. Each station has 2–3 trained personnel who respond directly to incidents in private vehicles, equipped with medical bags, AEDs, and communication equipment. Crews assist EMS personnel from the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service (WFPS) and the Interlake-Eastern Regional Health Authority (IERHA).
