Applications for Citizens Fire Academy #13 are now closed! We have reached capacity. Check back at this page in the future for CFA #14!
The academy will be held on Thursday evenings from 6 to 9pm from August 28th through October 30th, a total of 10 nights.
Citizens Fire Academy (CFA) gives citizens the opportunity to peek behind the curtains at Carrollton Fire Rescue. In class, students will see demonstrations of crews performing Emergency Medical Service skills, Technical Rescue Operations, Fire Ground Operations, be able wear real firefighting gear, and even get their hands on the "Jaws of Life" on Vehicle Extrication night! In addition to class sessions, CFA participants are encouraged to ride-out with crews during their academy time and experience life at the fire stations interspersed with making emergency calls with the crews.
Each participant will receive training in Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), the use of Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs), Stop the Bleed, Fire Extinguishers, and much more - don't miss out!
Thank you for your interest in our Citizens Fire Academy - we take pride in our service and look forward to welcoming you!
