The training consists of several weeknights of classroom sessions and one weekend day for each of the eleven weeks. Prior to attendance, the trainee will receive advance training from NCVFC to prepare for the work at the Academy.
In addition, mandatory blood borne pathogen training and an SCBA mask fit test will be given to all new members prior to participation in firematic duties.
