Fire Training Academy· Cooperative Courses
Most cooperative courses are scheduled on the weekends. Class rosters must be received by the Fire Training Academy no later than five working days prior to the start of the class if certificates of completion are needed on class day. The maximum size of the class is limited to 25 unless authorized by the Fire Training Academy. Organizations will be billed for all excess students.
Notice: All co-op instructors must have successfully passed the class as a student, attended a Train the Trainer program for the course they are going to teach and taught within the last 12 months at the Fire Training Academy.
Your organization is responsible for providing at least one support person to fill air bottles. This person will be trained by the Fire Training Academy maintenance staff during the Train the Trainer portion of the class and cannot be a course participant. If it is impossible for you to provide a support person, please let us know early and we will arrange for a support person at an additional fee, which will be added to your course cost.
Each department sending participants is responsible to make sure that air bottles are within current hydrostatic testing standards and that all protective equipment meets current NFPA standards set forth in WAC 296-305. All co-op courses are responsible for cleaning up the classroom and the drill grounds after their class. This includes policing the area for garbage, putting equipment away, tagging broken items, etc.
Cancellations:
The Fire Training Academy must be notified in writing five (5) working days prior to the scheduled start date of the course or the full student fee will be assessed.
Course Fees:
All prices are effective January 1, 2008 and are subject to change (due to market fluctuations).
