| Field Programs: I want to offer a
fire training course in my community.
You can use a qualified instructor that your
department provides.
This is a non-contract course. You provide a qualified instructor. No
fees are charged to the students. You must submit required forms and you
must follow the Policies, Procedures, and
Regulations of the Commission. These courses are available for Field
delivery on a non-contract basis.
You can use an instructor that the Alabama
Fire College provides.
This is a contract course. The Alabama Fire College hires a qualified
instructor; as a result, there are fees that the students must pay to cover
the costs of instruction, monitoring, testing, and certification. Check with
Field Programs staff to determine the fees that would be required for each
student. Different forms are required for contract courses. These courses
are available for Field delivery on a contract basis.
How many students? All certification
courses require a minimum of 8 students to be present at all class meetings.
If a class is reduced to fewer than 8 students through dropouts, the course
loses it approval and the course stops.
