The Hampton Roads Marine Fire Fighting School is normally held the second full week of May each year in Norfolk, VA. This year it will be held the first full week. This is undoubtably the most comprehensive hands-on marine fire training experience you will currently find anywhere in the country. TMSA requires all of our instructors to attend this one week course after completion of our train-the-trainer program. This course is designed for everyone from Chief Officer to Firefighter. Each student learns the subject matter and works at their level of seniority/rank to hone skills needed to fight these kinds of fires, command companies, or battalion/division level activiities offered no where else.
Class size is limited to 100 students. Contact TMSA or the HR MIRTfor more details.
