Firefighter II is designed as the last step in initial level training for interior structural
firefighters and/or who will serve as team or group leaders under the general
supervision of an officer. It introduces new more advanced areas that will be expanded
in other training programs. This course will include Vehicle Extrication techniques giving
a firefighter the training components equivalent to those found within NFPA Firefighter

Firefighter II is based on objectives from NFPA Standard 1001, Firefighter Level II, and
consists of performance criteria in: incident command implementation, building
materials and collapse, special rescue, hydrant flow and operability, hose tools, foam
operations, flammable liquid/gases, detection, alarm systems, fire department
communications, pre-fire planning, special situations, strategy and tactics.
