Online (blended learning) Recruit Academy
We are proud to announce the Fall 2012 launch of
FireFighterAcademy.com. This robust recruit academy is designed for those that may not have the time to commit to the traditional face-to-face training academy but still want the best hands-on training available anywhere.
Developed by TEEX and PennWell, the leading publisher of firefighter educational books, magazines and training conferences, students will benefit from a rock-solid collaboration, built on 200+ years of combined experience.
Traditional Face-to-Face Recruit Fire Training Academy
If online learning is not for you, then our traditional 12-week program consisting of face-to-face classroom learning and hands-on field exercises is exactly what you need. We may have added an online option, but that has not changed the excellence we deliver through this program.
