The educational institutions are mandatorily equipped with solutions for fire protection, specified by legal decrees. However, in order to ensure that the educators would be versed in performing countermeasures of fire protection, or in processes of evacuation and rescue, it is imperative to have them complete fire protection training. This is austerely demanded by the school management, as the training is mandatory.
The aim of the present research is to map the realizations of teachers working in elementary schools located in Vojvodina, considering the fire protection training in schools. The further aim is to map the teachers’ opinion about a possible, theoretic fire protection training based on eLearning?

Furthermore, the research has shed light on the fact that 88% of the educators consider the practical knowledge of the solutions for fire protection important. Therefore, (chi-square = 0,075) 71% of educators would participate in a fire protection training course based on eLearning. They have remarked in their textual answers that their recent training have been held usually in schools after classes, at late night hours, so the majority has participated in a weary, exhausted state.
As a result of the present research, it can be stated that the educators have approved the idea of fire protection training based on eLearning.
