Instructor I Challenge Exam - Skills Assessment


Instructor I Challenge Exam - Skills Assessment : 8.00 Hours

Course Description

The Pro Board Challenge Exam for the Fire Service Instructor I is designed to give State Certified Instructors the opportunity to obtain national certification.  Evaluations, including a written exam and multiple skill evaluations, will be conducted over one 8-hour day.  Upon successful completion of this objective process, national certification is awarded to the candidate, and the candidate’s name will be entered in the Pro Board registry. 

This course is run in conjunction with a scheduled Instructor I course.  In the event that the Instructor I class is cancelled, for whatever reason, this class will also be canceled.

Written Test: There is a 70-question written exam.  Candidates are given one attempt. Additional attempts at the written exam can be scheduled at a regional test site at a later date.  There will be an additional fee for written exam retakes.
