Firefighter I & II

This 85-day program immerses students in the realities of firefighting, with training delivered at a cutting-edge facility and fire ground. Students learn from the same professional fire instructors who train active firefighters, alongside an extensive network of over 80 experienced firefighters, officers, and subject-matter experts.

Students training experience will mirror life in a real firehouse. You’ll be assigned a dedicated training wing designed like a traditional fire station, complete with a training room, change rooms, an apparatus bay, and a structural pumper. Just like a recruit firefighter, learners take responsibility for maintaining your firehall, repacking your fire truck, and conducting daily inspections of all fire apparatus equipment.

More than 50 percent of your time will be spent developing hands-on skills in high-intensity, real-world scenarios.
