Student Firefighters actively support the our mission of protecting life and property through public education, prevention activities, and emergency response services. Student Firefighters plays a crucial role in delivering our services to our communities.
Prospective students are recruited through a joint application process with Rogue Community College (RCC). If accepted into the program, they are placed in a Firefighter-I Academy where they receive specialized training. Upon academy graduation, the student firefighters are assigned to a career station where they reside, train, and respond to alarms with on-duty career firefighters.
