SMWA's mission is “To annually provide the best and most efficient schedule of courses to graduate, support and expand the knowledge of qualified wildland firefighters through the Single Resource Level (ie. Engine Boss) while also offering a variety of community outreach courses relating to personal safety and the expansion of the public’s knowledge of the Firefighting/EMS field”.
SMWA
We make the most of the training to challenge individuals physically and mentally in a repetitive and dedicated manner.
Students are provided with the opportunity to add context to the knowledge gained during the class studies. |
Trainers
Our qualified trainers ensure comprehensive skills and knowledge are covered in a way that allows for successful learning and retention.
Every certified trainer has years of experience dedicated to helping you become the best firefighter you can be. |
Practical Skills
The physical nature of a firefighter’s job requires familiarity with both equipment and procedures. SMWA is designed to provide this experience in a concentrated training session that spans several days .
|
Academic Studies
Student’s time in the academy is spent doing hands on training and in the classroom; to include simulations that enable the students to experience real firefighting challenges in a controlled setting.
