•3.7.06: Stepping Up The Training •
Recently in February, the 41 house completed Vehicle Rescue Technician (VRT). A three-part course consisting of awareness, operations and the technician levels. 16 completed up to the operations level, 9 testing for the technician level and suscessfully passing all 9. The remaining 7 were mostly juniors over 16 and will test for the technician level when they turn 18. With the 9 added to the technician level this puts Station 41 over 85% State Certified in Vehicle Rescue. The 41 house will be looking to go above 75% with FF1 & FF2 certification by the end of the year, standing now at just above 20%. Great accomplishment to all, and keep up the good work.
