The Department of Emergency Services offers a large variety of classes for first responders.
There are now separate registration applications for NYS OFPC courses and Westchester County courses respectively.
This page contains specific instructions on how to request registration in either the Learning Management System (LMS) or Training Tracking Application (TTA), depending upon the type of course (NYS OFPC course - LMS, or Westchester County course - TTA). Before requesting registration/enrollment, CHECK WITH YOUR CHIEF OR TRAINING OFFICER and make sure they are aware of approval of your request. For NYS OFPC courses (Firefighter I, Firefighter Survival, etc), you will need them to sign off on an NYS Training Authorization Letter for delivery to the Instructor at the first class session, so don't surprise them (your Chiefs) at the last minute. You do not need a Training Authorization Letter for Westchester County courses (Active Shooter, Four Gas meter, etc.).
Students should reference the Training Announcement to determine if the class is sponsored by Westchester County or NYS OFPC.
