The major in fire prevention technology offers students the opportunity to develop the
professional skills and knowledge necessary to serve as an effective leader and
manager in the public safety environment. The program is built around a “core” of
courses that focus on broad knowledge and principles. Fire prevention specialists
inspect buildings and equipment to detect fire hazards and enforce state and local
regulations; develop and coordinate fire prevention programs; identify corrective
actions necessary to bring properties into compliance with applicable fire codes, laws,
regulations, and standards; explain these measures to property owners or their
representatives; inspect and test fire protection and/or fire detection systems to verify
that such systems are installed in accordance with appropriate laws, codes,
ordinances, regulations, and standards; and write detailed reports of fire inspections
performed, fire code violations observed, and corrective recommendations offered.
Developed in conjunction with the National Fire Academy of the Federal Emergency
Management Agency, the program covers the various aspects of the profession,
provides content knowledge, and improves employment opportunities in the field, as
well as prepares students for entry-level management responsibilities and increases
technical knowledge necessary for diverse public and private leadership situations.
This certificate is a career program and may not readily transfer to four year colleges/universities (except in special cases.)
