The TtT class is for four days (32 hours) from 8:30am - 5pm and the class size is 30. Everyone must attend the entire class in order to receive a certification. A certified FGS Instructor can teach the FGS operations course/training (24 hours) to their department or surrounding departments that run mutual aid. If you open the class to surrounding departments, they must send at least two people to get certified in order to be able to teach within their respective departments. Class Prerequisites - be a fire fighter or employed by a fire department and involved in a fire service training program; at least one year of teaching experience; demonstrated ability to teach from prepared materials; and certification to the NFPA Instructor I level or equivalent. Complete the FGS Online Awareness Course: The online awareness program can be found here: https://www.iaff.org/fire-ground-survival/ You must log in to the IAFF website to access the course. Each participant must have completed this before attending the TtT course. A few months before the TtT course, the POC will receive an email with the class TtT registration link. This must be sent out to all participants. Once a participant registers for the TtT course, they will receive a confirmation email along with details on how to register for the online awareness course. If they have already started this course, they will just be prompted to log back in. The TtT and online awareness course are two different registration links.
