Northern College's one-year Pre-Service Firefighter program is based at the Timmins campus and delivered at the state-of-the-art Integrated Emergency Services Complex alongside Timmins Fire Department. Combining labs, field placements, and vocational courses, the program trains students in rope rescue, forcible entry, live-burn scenarios, emergency patient care, fire behaviour, building construction, and technical rescue to NFPA 1001 (2019) Level I and II standards. Students may volunteer as firefighters and complete a six-week immersive hands-on fire and rescue evolution training component.
