Fire Engineering Training is now Accredited in Kentucky!
Fire Engineering Training is delighted to share that we are now accredited by the Kentucky Fire Commission to provide continuing education credits for firefighters renewing their certifications.
Per state requirements, firefighters can complete up to 25% of their required annual training through an online resource. This means that volunteer firefighters can submit up to 5 hours of online training, while paid firefighters can submit up to 25 hours. These continuing education credits are only applicable toward recertification requirements and do not include initial certifications.
Fire Engineering Training currently offers fire courses that count toward annual training requirements. In addition, all CAPCE-accredited courses can also be applied to EMS continuing education hours.
How Does Reporting Work?
-
- All firefighter training hours need to be monitored by a Kentucky Fire Commissioned certified instructor.
- Kentucky is a self-reporting state, so all departments and individuals must submit their own certificates or reports to show course completion.
- The good news: this data is readily available through our reporting functionalities.
