Fire Cadet ProgramThe San Diego Fire-Rescue Department Cadet Program was organized in 1983 for young men and women , age 16 to 21 who are interested in learning about a career in Fire Suppression and Emergency Medical Services. This program is not intended to be a direct recruiter of future firefighters, but rather gives young men and women an inside look into the Fire and Emergency Medicine profession. The purpose of this program is to aid young people in the decision of whether they want to pursue a career in Fire Suppression. The Cadets attend mandatory training classes and are encouraged to participate in a 12 to 24 hour ride-along program. This program helps Cadets gain experience as they assist firefighters and the Department in a non-hazardous capacity. In addition to Fire Department related responsibilities, Fire Cadets are also encouraged to take Fire Science classes, and go on outings and camping trips planned by Cadet membership. Some of the requirements for the Cadet program:
New Cadets are currently accepted into the program once per quarter. For more information on the Fire Cadet Program please contact:
Engineer Jeff Ring The Cadet Program is sponsored by the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department and San Diego City Firefighters, Local 145. The Cadets are supported by San Diego City firefighters who act as program advisors. |
