If you are affiliated with Washington state's local, state, federal, or tribal firefighting agencies participating in wildland fire suppression, you can register for an academy. In addition, participants must also meet each course's qualification and prerequisite requirements.
DNR’s Wildland Fire Academy Program hosts interagency academy sessions to provide quality wildland fire training at no cost to Washington's in-state interagency firefighting partners. The program offers a suite of operational wildland firefighting courses leading to qualifications at the Firefighter Type 2, Firefighter Type 1, and Single Resource Boss levels. The courses meet National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG) standards.
