The BFPSE has the responsibility for establishing the rules and regulations for voluntary training for fire service and, for some specialized training, non-fire service personnel in Indiana including setting criteria for certification of firefighters at different levels of education within the state. The Board has taken a very pro-active approach to fire service training and has placed Indiana in the forefront of certifications offered.
