Enrollment is open and classes start January 19th for Lassen Community College’s new Volunteer Firefighter Academy.
The Volunteer Firefighter program is designed to reduce confusion among volunteer firefighters by setting clear, realistic and achievable standards for certification as a volunteer firefighter that are consistent with recognized standards.
The classes, which run through April 27th, are an improvement over the current State Fire Marshal volunteer firefighter certification. They incorporate pertinent portions of the California State Fire Marshal firefighter-1 requirements.
This course may be taken as legally mandated for certification requirements. An additional state certificate fee will be required.
