Basic Training on Fire and Its Prevention and the Use of Light Fire Extinguishers (APAR)
To improve preparedness and basic skills in responding to fire emergencies, the Samarinda State Agricultural Polytechnic (Politani) held Basic Fire Training and the Use of Light Fire Extinguishers (APAR). The training, attended by the entire academic community, including lecturers, educational staff, and security officers, was held on campus on November 14, 2025. The event was opened by Politani Samarinda Director Hamka, S.TP., M.Sc., M.P., accompanied by Deputy Director 2 Eva Nurmarini, S.Hut., M.P., and delivered by Okgianto Nugroho, Operations Manager of PT. GINCO PUTRA PERKASA.

This training was designed to equip participants with essential theoretical knowledge and practical skills, covering three main pillars: prevention, initial response, and evacuation. By understanding this, it is hoped that all campus members can become the frontline in creating a safe and disaster-responsive campus environment. The training session also included practical exercises using fire extinguishers made from dry chemical powder.

By holding this training, Politani Samarinda hopes to minimize the risk of fire and improve the capacity of its human resources in responding to emergency situations. This proactive measure aligns with the campus's commitment to ensuring the security, safety, and comfort of all campus residents in their activities.
