FIRE & RESCUE TRAINING
Are you a firefighter who needs training, or are you interested in becoming a firefighter?
Our fire training division offers fire and rescue training classes at fire departments in New Hanover and Pender counties. Classes to provide NC Firefighter Certification (through the NC Fire & Rescue Commission), courses for re-certifications, and courses in the latest technology are offered locally on a regular basis.
The Firefighter Training Centers, located at our North Campus and at Myrtle Grove Fire Department, allow completion of most firefighter certification classes through computer interactive training plus practical tests on a flexible schedule.
