I am finishing my FF I with the fifth edition (the book covers both FF I and II) but here in Colorado you can not test for FF II until a year after your FF I cert. It is a good thing the book has both courses, because you are already ahead by the ...
I know with most classes your Instructor will provide a schedule and a syllabus when the class starts.
First of all good luck i just finished my I & II in May we had fourth edition. It does vary by state though and i am in Michigan. Just practice your ropes & knots faithfully, for some reason that was the hardest part for me. Good luck though!
Brad, check with you Indiana state Fire Authority. I dont know how it works in your state but here there is a state training agency that ultimately oversees or certifies firefighters and they are responsible to provide the curriculum for the class...

Stephan said… - Thanks for that. I need the enchourgement sometimes. It's hard to find depts that are hiring around Indiana. I have been looking around our surrounding states but most of them require me to have the certs from their state so it makes it difficult. Hope all is going well for you in Muncie. If they have a process starting up anytime soon please let me know. Thanks

Hey Brad caught my attention this picture, this is legal in Indiana that problems can have the Fire Brigade headquarters for doing this. The laws in your country covering the work of firefighters?
Greetings from Argentina and Chau cuidate!

I'm disturbed by an apparent upswing in recent months in the frequency with which we see volunteer fire departments and districts being called on the carpet for an inability to account for how their funds are spent. This article in today's FireRes...
Many cities in the US have had problems where the fire dept shows up and had to duck because they had things thrown or dropped from buildings on them. Our engine has had things thrown at it by kids and we live in a area considered mild but they we...
