Description: In Person. From the Federation of Fire Chaplain’s website: The Basic Fire Chaplain training includes 16 hours of course material (The Essentials of Fire Chaplaincy) designed as survey of ministry in the fire service. During basic training the chaplain will take classes in Ministry to Firefighters, Ministry to Fire Victims, Critical Incident Stress, Fire Department Funerals, Fire Chaplain Operations, and many others. This class will be taught by FFC Vice President, John Franklin Long.
FRCC highly endorses this class for ALL fire chaplains as a foundation course. Although essential for all FRCC Chaplains, it is meant to be built upon. Taking additional classes is highly recommended for all fire chaplains.
