Pre-Service Firefighter Education & Training (Brockville)
You’re running in, everybody else is running out. Sounds a lot like a job description for a real-life super hero – are you ready to apply? Are you ready to ‘make a difference’? Are you ready for the challenge?
Following the curriculum developed by the International Fire Service Training Association (IFSTA) and meeting the National Fire Protection Association/NFPA 1001 Firefighter I& II standard, this program blends theory, lab practice, and simulated field placement. Students will be expected to perform fire related duties at a considerable height or in very confined spaces in preparation for entry into the firefighting profession. Prepare yourself for an exciting career as a professional firefighter, or in related employment.
Our firefighter program has a close association with our fire department partner, Brockville Fire Department. St. Lawrence College Pre-Service students work hand in hand with the members of the BFD with many of their members working as Part-time instructors with the program. We also have a close association with the Elizabethtown-Kitley Fire and Emergency Services, which surrounds the City of Brockville. Students will spend practical training days at the Brockville Stations as well as Elizabethtown-Kitley.
