Frequently Asked Questions
What is the NFPA Firefighter II Exam?
The Firefighter II exam is a professional certification test based on NFPA 1001 (Standard for Fire Fighter Professional Qualifications). While Firefighter I focuses on basic tasks, Firefighter II evaluates a candidate's ability to perform advanced firefighting tasks, take on a command role in small scenarios, and assist technical rescue teams.
What is the difference between Firefighter I and Firefighter II?
Firefighter I is the "entry level" focused on basic operations under direct supervision. Firefighter II involves more advanced skills, such as fire origin and cause determination, hose testing, foam fire streams, and performing more complex rescue operations with less supervision.

- Fire suppression with foam streams.
