Seven of our Firefighter 1 candidates have completed their certification testing. The two day process culminates the introductory class that has run every Saturday and Sunday since Labor Day. This was also the first joint recruit training between San Juan Island Fire and Friday Harbor Fire in several years. Class members included Evan Anderson, Adam Ayers, David Billstrom, Chris Chesley, Kate Hunter, Jane Hutchison, Mike MacLellan, Chris Ross and Brien Sesby.Thanks are also due to all of the officers and firefighters that helped in course delivery and certification testing.
Our new firefighters are certifying through an internationally recognized testing process that establishes consistent professional capabilities. It is the same level of testing used in urban career fire departments such as Everett, Bellingham, or Tacoma.
