This Online Firefighter I and Haz-Mat Operations training course is a self directed (start today!), interactive, distance learning course that when successfully completed allows you to test for your IFSAC (International Fire Service Accreditation Congress) certification for FFI and Haz-Mat Operations. The course curriculum covers all Firefighter and Haz-Mat knowledge and skill requirements.
