The Syracuse Fire Department is offering a seven week C.E.R.T. Training Class starting Tuesday, March 1, 2011 from 6-9 p.m. These classes will be held every Tuesday for seven weeks at the Syracuse Fire Station located at 1869 South 3000 West. There is a $25.00 charge for the C.E.R.T. (Community Emergency Response Team) equipment that certified C.E.R.T. is required to have.
Class dates:
- March 1
- March 8
- March 15
- March 22
- March 29
- April 5
- April 12
- There will also be a final class mock disaster on April 16 from 9 a.m. to noon.
To sign up for the class you will need to call the Syracuse Fire Station in February at 801-614-9614 or send an e-mail to cert@syracuseut.com.
We would like as many members of our precinct as possible to be C.E.R.T. Trained.
If we had a large scale emergency, the Block Captains will probably be the “First Response” and possibly the only response for a period of time. If you are not already C.E.R.T. trained, please take this class if possible.
For those already C.E.R.T. Trained, there will be a C.E.R.T. Refresher Class sometime in March.
