Fire Protection Technology
Associate in Occupational Studies, Career program
This program provides educational and research opportunities for individuals working in fire protection. It emphasizes new developments and use of up-to-date equipment in firefighting. Most of the instruction for the fire science courses is conducted by certified instructors at the Academy of Fire Sciences in Montour Falls, NY and at outreach sites. Therefore, you must be a member of a fire department to be eligible to enroll in those courses.
You may receive CCC residency credit for those Fire Science courses offered at the Academy and at other approved outreach sites by enrolling in the program and registering for each course with CCC at the time the course is taught. You will have to complete at least 30 hours of residency credit to receive this degree. It is essential that you meet with the Coordinator of this program to carefully plan how you will meet the residency credit requirement.
Credit for Prior Learning (Fire Training Certificates)
