This past week, 20 maritime personnel and students, along with our dedicated instructors, had a different kind of “Spring Break”.
Everyone worked diligently to complete their USCG approved Combined Basic and Advanced Firefighting Credential. The course prepares mariners with the necessary skills to effectively participate in emergency response teams aboard merchant vessels and offshore facilities. (think cargo ship or oil rig - hundreds of miles from a fire station with a fire emergency, that they MUST handle). This was our 4th such class this winter, with a total of 70 students completing it.
