Brief Description
This course meets and exceeds the training and education standards for paid firefighters.
Full Description
This extensive 50-day firefighter training program is the only one of its kind in the state of Ohio to be recognized by the International Fire Service Accreditation Congress (IFSAC) and ProBoard. This course exceeds the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC)  requirements for firefighters and the training and education standards identified in the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standards.

Upon completion of this course, participants will have the knowledge necessary to successfully complete the Ohio Firefighter 1 & 2 examination. In addition to basic firefighter job skills, students will learn essential functions of the job including: professionalism, leadership, teamwork, honor, firefighter safety, emergency vehicle operation and apparatus pumping. The course runs weekdays from 06:00 to 17:00, with an occasional night lecture. Students must pass written and practical skill competency evaluations to successfully complete the course.

This fast-paced course is both mentally and physically demanding, requiring high levels of dedication and commitment from every student. Embedded in this course is a daily one-hour physical training program that requires students to run 1.5 miles on the first day. It is highly recommended that Firefighter Mile certification is obtained prior to class. Additional Firefighter Mile information may be found at https://nationaltestingnetwork.com/publicsafetyjobs/firefighter_mile_info.cfm.

Students are responsible for providing their own turnout gear and course textbooks. The Ohio Fire Academy does provide Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) rental for an additional fee.
