Dude.. Everyone in that class just wants to get it the heck over with, why do you gotta put your two cents in on every detail? Just shut up! No one asked for your opinion! If you hate it so much, volunteer to teach it or have a role in teaching it. But it sounds like you take this firefighting gig a bit too seriously.
I know the feeling. I'm a 4th year med student, have training in hazmat, and in mass triage events (ie bomb goes off injuring multiple people multiple car crash, etc), have the training they give to military medics... But had to take work safe bc first aid. Ended up walking out halfway through and the first thing I did when I got to work was sign a waiver saying they couldn't touch me if I was knocked out. Without this course I'm not allowed to so much as put a bandaid on someone for a paper cut at work. But am still required to respond to any triage event or injuries in the parking lot by law. I walked out because the teacher refused to listen to me when I said that the very last thing one should do with a patient impaled by a foreign object is to yank it out and apply pressure. (Leave the object in and keep it as secure as possible) some of the other things they told us to do? If someone falls off a ladder we should roll them into the recovery position (hello, possible spine and head injury. Don't f***ing move them unless there's immediate and unavoidable danger. A situation like if someone was thrown out of their car after a crash, landed nearby the car and the car in on fire and you can smell fuel.) oh and according to work safe bc if something's broken the recovery position is the best thing for it. What part of the stabilize and avoid moving it can't they comprehend? Hell, someone who's entire first aid knowledge comes from watching tv dramas and movies could figure out the logic to most of basic first aid.

Those are things that should be pointed out. if the class is miseducating people then you need to report that to someone.
You'd be fired for not taking a fire safety class.. Seems reasonable. But no, really, take it higher.
