Registration and Check-In
The purpose of the school is to make quality training available to as many dedicated emergency responders as possible. Every effort has been made to accommodate maximum participation in the course of registration. Student will not be registered in a course until the College receives a release that includes the signature of the appropriate Chief/Training Officer located on the second page of the registration form. Affirmation Statement does not apply for medical courses. Should your first choice be filled, you will be assigned to your second or third choice. You will be notified only if you do not get your first choice of classes.
Students who do not pre-register for Emergency Services College must report to the 2nd floor of the J. Bryan Brooks Student Center to register for a class before it starts. Office hours will be Monday–Thursday, 8 AM – 5 PM and Friday, 8 AM – 7 PM. Refunds will be returned only if the College cancels classes due to low enrollment. The student must contact the Fire Coordinator to complete paperwork for a refund.
Most classes will be held on campus. Pre-registered students will receive a postcard with class title, dates/time and room number. Vendors will display merchandise and equipment in the gymnasium area (Brinkley Building) on Saturday and Sunday. Refreshments will be available in the vendor area. T-shirts, caps, etc. also will be available. Please note the requirements for each course and bring appropriate equipment needed to complete the class.
