Prescribed fire is an important tool for forest and rangeland management, but there are barriers to its use, including a lack of qualified personnel with the necessary ecological knowledge and operational expertise. In order to implement prescribed fire across landscapes containing a variety of ownerships, these personnel should be from both federal agencies and non-federal organizations. Further, fire science educators have suggested that in order to prepare the next generation of fire professionals, three components---training, education, and experience---must be integrated in a professional development triangle. However, recognized needs for professional development and increased use of fire are not being met. The Prescribed Burn Training Exchange model from the Fire Learning Network incorporates the three components of the professional development triangle while fostering collaboration between nongovernmental organizations, private contractors, landowners, and government agencies. This study evaluated the training model and assessed outcomes using surveys, interviews, focus groups, and participant observation. I found that the participants are very satisfied with the flexible model across disparate training needs and experience levels. The results suggest that the training model is a valuable addition to prescribed fire education opportunities, can be implemented by other organizations, and therefore can serve to increase the capacity for fire management.
