The Fire Academy offers a number of courses that are set up in a multiple session format. We realize that the 'free' time available to volunteer firefighters is very limited and often presents a problem for individuals desiring to attend multi-session programs. The Fire Academy's multiple session programs are designed upon the "building block" principle; they follow a logical progression of integrated topics. A student should attend these training sessions in proper sequence.

It is also recommended that this type of course be scheduled on a weekly basis. Extending the duration of a particular course over months acts as a deterrent to the motivated student.
