four-hour classroom session. Once you complete the class and pass the written exam you
may begin on-the-road driver training and platform operation with one of
the instructors. Classes started in September and additional classes will be scheduled in the near
future (dates to be announced).
Platform
Training: To operate from the platform controls you must also
go through a qualification process, including the four-hour classroom
session described above.
Eligibility:
Driver training is open for all Department drivers at all
companies. To become a qualified driver of Tower 1 you must be a
current Ladder 7 driver or an engine driver for at least one year.
Platform training is open to all Department firefighters not on
probation.
Further
details will be discussed at the classroom training, or you may call
