"A good firefighter knows how, an educated firefighter knows why"
The City of Lauderhill’s Fire Training Division is committed to providing timely, pertinent, and realistic training to our firefighters. Firefighting, Emergency Medical Services, Rescue, and Hazardous Materials incidents require the best available training in order to prepare our firefighters for the wide variety of calls they may encounter. Our mission is to equip firefighters with the knowledge and skills needed to mitigate any emergency. Effective, efficient, and safe scene operations are the result of frequent, high-quality training. We maintain operational readiness by having firefighters certified in a variety of disciplines, developing individual skills, and require over 192 hours annually of company based training.
The Fire Training Division is responsible for the coordination, design, and delivery of fire training for the entire department as well as documentation of all educational programs involving department personnel. The training division utilizes a variety of instructional methods including classroom lectures, company based drills, individual study, and web-based training. This ensures that all personnel are provided with the most current and up-to-date information, skills, and industry standards.
