Online/ Self-study Program profile
Due to the successful implementation of our online platform, we are excited to announce the scheduled dates for 2021.

The offer is for online and self-study with limited instructor/facilitator support. We will however not exclude anyone from participating based on employment status. Learners will be required to study and prepare at their own pace. Planned online sessions will be advertised when needed or requested.
Many competent and experienced fire and emergency services personnel find it difficult to attend training due to the continued change of qualification, the duration of training, and associated cost. This offer is to provide experienced fire fighters and emergency services personnel the opportunity to obtain recognised qualifications and certificates without the added cost and frustration to attend a course again. The online program is designed to recognise previous training and experience. Candidates will have the opportunity to prepare and study at their own pace and select a date for assessment that suit them best. The program must be completed within 12 Months from enrolment. If the program is not successfully completed within the 12 months the learner will be required to restart the process.
