Hello everyone, and welcome to the Portland Fire Department Fire Instructor 1 course. This course will help you understand the role and responsibilities of a fire instructor. We will be using the IFSTA Fire Instructor Manual 9th edition. The self-paced class will begin on September 1 and end at the end of September. The final exam will be held on three different days: September 30, October 2, and October 4. The location for the final exam and state skills assessment will be communicated to everyone at a later date. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at thomas.pinder@portlandtx.com or call me at 361-813-1102.

This course will be delivered through classroom and skills sessions at Radcliff Fire Headquarters between 4/23 and 5/2/24.

It is expected that students will read the course material prior to the classroom sessions if possible.  The better prepared that students are for each session, the more enhancements can occur to meet the objectives in each topic area.

You will receive a schedule that includes reading assignments as soon as you register for the course in IFSTA Resource 1.
