Dear Students, Please note, the following class has been cancelled due to low enrollment: Firefighter Safety and Survival Friday, September 22, 2023 at Hunterdon County Fire Academy  

Please note, the Course Catalogue option on the registration site is NOT the same as the Course Brochure on this site. Please use the Course Brochure, link offered above, to begin your planning.

If you see a discrepancy, please email jsteele@kean.edu. Thank you, The Fire Safety Training Program Staff

The Fire Safety Training Program Staff remember and pray for those who selflessly gave their lives on this day in 2001. We hold all, whose lives were cut short, as well as, their families in our thoughts and prayers. Peace be with you.
