The International Fire Service Accreditation Congress (IFSAC) and National Professional Qualifications Board (ProBoard) are independent organizations that examine and accredit training and testing agencies. What this means is that an outside, independent source has examined our tests and testing processes and determined that our test can accurately examine candidates on each aspect of a standard, such as NFPA 1001. Your successful completion of the certification exam means that you will receive a certificate and be registered with IFSAC and/or ProBoard as having demonstrated your competency in that discipline.
What is this IFSAC and ProBoard certification all about anyway?
No, unfortunately, we do not have copies. We can send you a transcript showing the classes you have taken at Bucks County Community College. You must complete a Transcript Request Form.
Exception: If you have lost an IFSAC or ProBoard certificate issued by the Bucks County Community College, these can be replaced, however there is a replacement fee of $15 per certificate. Please contact the Certification Office at email PSCertification@bucks.edu for more information.
I lost my Bucks certificate. Can you send me a copy?
