What is this IFSAC and ProBoard certification all about anyway?

User image

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.
