Why Online?

Because of the small number of fire science programs, interested firefighters often have a hard time finding courses that are not only within their area, but fit their schedules as well.

The typical firefighter is dedicated, strong-willed, and self-motivated. These are all character traits that are almost unspoken requirements for online course work. Firefighters and others applying to the service often work multiple jobs, leaving little time for attending structured class. Combine the need for independence plus a natural motivation, and it becomes clear why online fire science degrees make so much sense.
