Fire Department of New York City Academy as a civilian.\nUS Navy, become Damage Controlman and you will know everything about damage control and firefighting and everything else pertaining safety. Plus, every sailor goes through firefight. I went through shipboard firefiting school (on ship fire) and aircraft firefighting school.

One...But you get re-certified every two years, and there is specific mandatory hours every year in training (which is good as technology and circumstance's change.) If you are interested there is a very strong need for firefighters in the DC area. Their candidates finish class and start in the field at $40k with full benefits, and the scheduling is set for 8 days a month (two 24 hr shifts every week) there is a link below. And if you fill out the application and get accepted they will help you find local residence.

Well if you want to become a firefighter in the Us 99% of places require you to be am EMT-Basic at least. Most want you (some require) to become an EMT-Paramedic. What you can do though, is get your EMT-B certification and then go to fireschool. Once you are hired on most dept's will pay for you to become an EMT-Paramedic. \n\nYou need to be in decent shape. Most firefighters aren't built like brick houses but they are in good shape. \n\nGo to the local fire house and ask them about becoming a volunteer fireman. Take a few shifts and see if it is for you before you start all that schooling.

You cannot take online classes to be a firefighter. First of all, you have to on a fire dept to take the fire class ( in the sate of  Michigan anyway). Try and join a volunteer department. They will pay for you class and books.

Yes, that's a good start.  My buddy is a firefighter here in Colorado.  He volunteered for about 2 years before he got hired on.  Another good thing to look into, alot of community colleges offer "Fire Sciences" coursework.  You can get an AS, or sometimes all the way up to a Masters (of course that level isn't tought at community college) if you want to maybe be a fire inspector, or chief someday.  Good luck!!
