Lowell Area Fire Department issued the following announcement on Mar 2.
This weekend and next we will have 11 members taking Instructor 1 classes and 1 member taking Instructor II and Live Fire Instructor class.
These classes meet State and NFPA standards 1041 & 1403. What does this mean you ask;
Having all these instructors means more education in house and greatly expands our teaching capabilities. It allows us to spread our instructors throughout the academy for current and future firefighters. Instructor II will allow us to create our own programs. Live Fire Inst. means that we do not have to rely on anyone to be available when we want to train and then puts an instructor close for our neighboring departments. This is huge for LAFD and we wish you gentleman all the very best. Thank you for your dedication !!!
