The Training group conducts and coordinates all department training activities including but not limited to recruit training, fire suppression, emergency medical, technical rescue, officer development and other training programs as necessary to meet established state and federal mandates each year. The group is responsible for ensuring that all department members meet the requirements as set forth by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Insurance Services Office (ISO), Oregon Dept. of Public Safety, Standards and TrainingOregon Health Authority, and the internal requirements by the Fire Department.
