Hello my friends,

The State Fire Training CTS workgroup has finished the draft of the Emergency Vehicle Technician CTS. This document contains all of the job performance requirements of NFPA 1071 as well as a few items in italics the group felt were lacking and is organized into three levels. The first two levels are for the working technician and the third is a supervisory standard.

Please take the time to review the documents and let us know if you have any questions or comments. Our goal is to improve the quality of our certification levels, provide relevant training and address NFPA 1071 in the California standards.

After our reviews, the draft will be presented to STEAC later this year and will be used as a guide for future EVT training.

Thank you for your time,

Shea Pursell
NCFMA President

Limited Space Left!

The California Fire Mechanics Academy, Inc. Board of Directors is pleased to announce additional 2010 educational opportunities for emergency vehicle technicians. There has been an overwhelming interest in CFMA offering classes at other times of the year in addition to the annual spring academy. In response to this interest, a limited number of classes are now scheduled for this fall in Southern California. This will allow students who are pursuing their California State Fire Mechanic certification an additional opportunity to take the required classes, therefore, expediting the process. Space is limited and registration is now being accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis. Complete the attached Student Registration and Invoice Information forms and return with payment to the CFMA administrative office for processing. Your registration will be processed and confirmed upon receipt of completed paperwork and payment.
