It has been another successful year for our Academies. Both Fire and EMT credentials have been earned and our recruits are able to join the work force! Thank you to our industry partners for assisting our students in achieving success and making learning realistic. Thank you to our teaching staff in the building for always encouraging our recruits and assisting when needed. Thank you to our administration for providing the ability for our recruits to earn these certifications. Lasty, thank you to our students for showing up and putting in the hard work. Solid work 4th and 6th, the bar is set for the 5th and 7th next year.

From syncope in a bathroom, to seated, stable back pain in a car. Sims are what you make them, throw in a difficult parent and we are now getting real world. Procedures are easy to demonstrate, however effective communication skills are not without the actors. A big thank you to our para educators for stepping In and helping.

We would like to say thank you so much to all the firefighters that assist our students on their journey to earning one of the best certifications on the planet. There are far to many of you to name, but you know who you are. Running our local students through an approved State of Michigan Fire 1&2 with HazMat Academy is a monumental task made manageable with help from our industry partners. With the demand growing for fire fighters and EMS personnel at an alarming rate, we will always take you up on your offers to assist. Thank you for missing holidays, birthdays, days at work, meals, sporting events, awards ceremonies, and so much more to serve our local communities, it is always appreciated. Thank you to the families who are often over looked for allowing your firefighters to leave and help someone in need!

These pictures can only mean one thing, Star Boards time for the Recruits. All day Thursday for the proctored written, and all day Friday for the practical. We would like to thank the members of the Big Rapids Professional Firefighters L1776 for their assistance as well as members of the Big Rapids Township Fire Department, Mecosta Twp Fire Dept, Mecosta County EMS, and the Morley Area Fire Dept. The best part was having alumni there to proctor and support our local students. We can proudly report that all that tested passed the practical today! Great job recruits of the MOCC 4th Fire Academy!

Please join us in awarding our Fire students.
