This study was conducted to examine the overall level of field applicability of the basic training program for fire officers. Data were collected through a survey administered to 216 fire officers working in G-do from [month, day, year] to [month, day, year]. The questionnaire consisted of 15 items, including 4 items on general characteristics and 11 items related to training transfer. Responses were measured using a five-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (“Strongly disagree”) to 5 (“Strongly agree”). The collected data were analyzed using the statistical software SPSS 29.0, and the reliability analysis yielded a Cronbach’s alpha of .967, indicating a very high level of internal consistency. The results showed that the average score for the field applicability of the basic training program was 3.99 out of 5, suggesting a relatively high level of perceived applicability. Statistically significant differences were found in field applicability scores based on gender, job position, rank, and recruitment path.
However, since this study was conducted with fire officers from a specific region, there are limitations in generalizing the findings to all fire officers. Therefore, further studies including more diverse regions and occupational settings are recommended.
