We are excited about your interest in participating in this program and hope that this orientation packet helps answer your questions and prepares you for success.  \nBasic Facts  \nTo enroll in the Fire Fighter II Academy, students must complete several prerequisite requirements and attend two mandatory orientation sessions. One of the most challenging prerequisites is obtaining a Public Safety-First Aid and CPR certification. I encourage students to begin this process as soon as possible to fulfill this State of California requirement. Information about these prerequisitesis highlighted in the next section of this packet.  \nThe Firefighter II Academy is made up of two core classes, FSC-90 Firefighter II Academy, and PE-280 Physical Fitness. Enrollment in both of these courses is required for participation.  \nBoth classes will start on December 15th, 2025, and the classes are scheduled Monday through Friday from 7 am until 5 pm each day. Classes are estimated to end May 1st, 2026, with a Capstone testing process at the College of the Siskiyous in Weed, California. (Capstone testing dates are subject to State Fire Training approval and are estimated.)  \nStudents are required to attend the academy every day. Students who miss more than 5% of a mandated subject matter or are absent for more than 24 hours are dropped from the course, per State Fire Training regulations. Students are required to pass the physical agility test with a score above 80% to complete the academy requirements.  \nMendocino College partners with the College of the Siskiyous for the final exam Capstone testing. This structured, skill-and knowledge-based assessment testing process meets strict State Fire Training (SFT) requirements. After successfully passing these tests, students will receive their Fire Fighter II certificate.  \nTo participate, students are required to purchase academy uniforms, rent Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA), and pay for the course’s tuition costs. A complete listing of the equipment costs and tuition costs is listed later in this packet. Financial Aid is available to help students participate in this program. You will find more information about assistance later in this packet.  \nPrerequisites  \nTo enroll and participate in the Fire Fighter II Academy, students must complete several prerequisites, before enrolling in the FSC-90 Fire Fighter II Academy and PE-280 Physical Education courses  \nStep 1-Become a Mendocino College Student  \nApply online [at](at www.mendocino.edu)[ ](at www.mendocino.edu)[www.mendocino.edu](at www.mendocino.edu) or complete the Application for Admission (if you are a continuing student of Mendocino College and have been enrolled in one of the last 2 semesters, this is not necessary) .  \nStep 2-Complete the Public Safety-First Aid Training Prerequisites  \nCalifornia State Fire Training requires that each student participating in the Fire Fighter II Academy has completed these courses: (or show proof of Fall 2025 enrollment)  \n· Public Safety-First Aid, or a higher qualification (EMT, or Paramedic)  \nAND  \n· CPR healthcare provider certification or equivalent.  \nMendocino College offers two courses in the Fall 2025 semester that meet these requirements: EMS-202, First Aid/Emergency Care/CPR, and EMS-135, Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) .
