Participants will experience components of the most widely used pre-placement functional evaluation – the Candidate Physical Abilities Test – and will have the opportunity to climb stairs, drag hose, carry equipment, force entry, raise ladders, drag dummies, breach ceilings and experience what firefighters should be able to do as part of their academy training. The tour of the training facilities will allow participants to learn more about the demands of a firefighting occupation and have an opportunity to discuss with expert trainers the policies, practices and procedures used to safely train effective firefighters, including NFPA 1582.
