The following individuals have kindly contributed to our fire training programs in an ongoing effort to provide the Wisconsin Fire Service community quality training that is current to industry standards. The WTCS Fire Service Training (FST) Program uses international training material and test banks written to the American Psychological Association Testing Writing Standard that are validated to the course textbook and correlated to the appropriate National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard and chapter. We also participate in an ongoing International Accreditation to insure that our testing and certification process is maintained at an industry wide professional standard.
