The Division of State Fire Marshal (SFM) provides the firefighter minimum standards training that must be completed to become licensed and employed as a firefighter in the State of Florida. Licensed firefighters may also obtain training as an emergency medical technician (EMT) that is conducted by the Department of Health, Bureau of Emergency Medical Oversight. The SFM has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Department of Health and the Department of Education to establish an educational curriculum framework that combines firefighter training and EMT training into one educational program. This option was created since a majority of firefighter employers require both firefighter and EMT certification to obtain employment.
