Overview
We exist to provide training & education to public safety professionals, statewide & beyond. Since 1936, the Alabama Fire College has delivered firefighter training. As service demands on fire departments have expanded, the Fire College has developed EMS, hazardous materials, rescue technician, and many other programs to meet those changing needs. The Fire College’s capacity to adapt to these changes is directly attributable to the dedication and commitment of the full and part-time staff and to the guidance and direction of the Fire College’s governing body, the Alabama Firefighters Personnel Standards and Education Commission. Because local, State, and Federal firefighters entrust us with their training, we are committed to ensuring they receive the most comprehensive educational experience possible and that the training they receive complies with nationally recognized standards.
Mission
Our continuing commitment is to facilitate excellence in education, training, certification, and support services for the emergency response community.
