Program Vision
To be able to make decisions based on what we believe are consistent with the goals of our organization, but also bold enough to raise the basic level of competency and challenge to the next attainable level.
Program Mission
To provide an educational experience for fire service personnel that will allow them the necessary competency for initial
employment experiences and to provide those necessary educational skills for successful promotional
opportunities.
Objectives
To raise skills literacy competency at all levels. To develop positive and successful group skills. To attain and maintain equivalency with the Office of the State Fire Marshal (OSFM) Guidelines. To attain and maintain equivalency with the National Fire Academy (NFA) Guidelines. To attain and maintain equivalency with the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA) Standards.
Strategies

hour. To include a research component for each class to solve the literacy component. To require that each
instructor in the Fire Service Management Program include a minimum of one group research and presentation project in each 48-hour class.
To develop a curriculum committee with the task of evaluating all Fire
Service Management classes to include all necessary OSFM, NFA, and NFPA guidelines and
