What is the Fire Academy like for those of you who have done it? Can you get dismissed from it since your already employed? What are some things to focus on?

What do you mean the Fire Academy? For Phoenix? Or what department? Or is it through a community college. Phoenix requires all people to go through there’s no matter what academy you’ve done in the past. But some of the smaller departments don’t.
I'm technically in Mesa. I wont have my EMT-B finished until May 10th. I have a buddy who works with me now who works on a Crisis Management Engine and hes encouraging me to apply. I haven't done my CPAT yet either though..Me too! You should apply for the department when they are open for hire again. I know I will! It’s really competitive to get hired in the department. Are you located in Phoenix?
Yeah I knew i would have time. What is an affinity group? I didn't know you needed your Hazmat Cert though.Well you still have time! And the hiring probably won’t be until August or September. And technically you could apply with no certs as long as you have your EMT b and cpat and hazmat by a certain date later on in the hiring process. Study that study guide, join an affinity group, get your emt done and who knows what will happen! Mesa Fire and medical is a good department too I hear!

Its related to both actually because Fire out here is Medical as well.Sounds like a question for the link below since it is fire-related and not EMS related. You'll probably get more information!
