Day 1: Certifications and Staying Ready 🚒🔥 Welcome to the Second Phase of Becoming a Firefighter! Over the next 6 days, I’ll guide you through the steps you need to take after completing the basics. If you’re ready to take your firefighter journey to the next level, this is for you. Today, we’re talking about certifications and staying ready. At this stage, you’re officially in the candidate process. ✅ Keep your FCTC, BIDDLE, and CPAT certifications current ✅ Set up accounts on job alert websites like calopps.org, governmentjobs.com, and fctconline.org Here’s a tough lesson from my own journey: A friend I was a cadet with let his FCTC score lapse, and he didn’t get hired into the same academy as me. Don’t let that happen to you—stay on top of your certifications! Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready. Tomorrow, we’ll talk about gaining hands-on experience to set you apart. Let’s keep it moving! 💪🔥
