The Fire & Rescue program introduces students to the field of Fire Science and Emergency Response. This course is physically demanding and requires students to submit an athletic physical before participating in the required practical training.  Attendance requirements, (including Saturday classes once a month), and academic performance requirements are required to be eligible to take the Fire Fighter I & II certification test.

High School Credit: Students will earn elective credit at their high school upon completion of this course. Please see a high school counselor for eligibility towards 4th-year math-related credit, VPAA credit, and waived credits for third-year science and second-year world language.

College Credit: Kalamazoo Valley CC offers articulated college credit for students earning the FF I & II certification.
