These training sessions are geared specifically toward completing the tasks required to pass the Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPAT), the physical test required to get hired (or even test) with a fire service agency.
It will be intensive and focused and WELL worth it! You will feel extremely prepared for a test that is pass/fail.
This is a very physically demanding part of testing to become a firefighter. It requires great strength and endurance. Working together, we can get you to where it's a walk in the park!
