This program introduces students to the basic skills required by firefighters including fire control, detection, and prevention. Certifications in this program include CPR; First Aid; and Hazardous Materials, Awareness, and Operations. Students who are at least 16 and pass the class with 70 percent or higher, will be eligible to take the Michigan Firefighter I and II exams for state certification.
I liked learning how to work at a fire, plus all
about the pumps & extraction tools.
