POISONOUS PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION OF BOTH ORDINARY COMBUSTIBLES AS WELL AS EXOTIC MATERIALS COULD VERY WELL ENDANGER THE SAFETY OF AN UNBORN INFANT AS COULD ANY TRAUMATIC INJURY.
FOR THE ABOVE REASONS, THE FIRE SERVICE ACADEMY HAS ADOPTED THE POLICY THAT PREGNANT FIREFIGHTERS SHALL NOT BE PERMITTED TO PARTICIPATE IN MANIPULATIVE SKILLS TRAIN- ING OR FIREFIGHTING EVOLUTIONS GIVEN BY THE ACADEMY UNLESS WE ARE PROVIDED WITH A WRITTEN, SIGNED STATEMENT FROM THE INDIVIDUAL’S PHYSICIAN WHICH MUST STATE THAT THE ABOVE REFERENCED ACTIVITIES SHALL NOT ENDANGER THE FIREFIGHTER OR HER UNBORN INFANT.
PARTICIPATION IN INDOOR, CLASSROOM SESSIONS WILL, OF COURSE, BE PERMITTED.
WE ASK YOUR COOPERATION WITH THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS POLICY, AND WE ARE SURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WE TAKE THIS POSITION ONLY FOR THE BEST INTEREST OF THOSE INVOLVED.
Fire Service Academy Firefighter Enrollment Identification Number
The Fire Service Academy of Nassau County has updated its membership data base. Inputting our data electronically has allowed us to streamline record keeping in complying with various state educational initiatives.
At this time we will be issuing identification numbers to each new individual firefighter in Nassau County. These numbers will run consecutively when the member is entered in the system, for example...i.e., Joe Smith 0000039, Robert Jones 0000040, etc....
These cards will contain the member’s name, fire department and the membership number. The member’s identification number will be required to enroll the member in all classes. When a new member joins they will still have to fill out the standard registration form before receiving their identification Card.

You You may may be be able able to to earn earn college college credit forcredit successful for successful completion completion of these of courses.these courses. As part As of thepart New of the York National Regents College National Credit College Recommendation Credit Recommendation Service, Service,these courses these courseswere evaluated were evaluated by a team by aof team subject of subject matter matter experts experts and found and found comparable comparable to college to college instruction. instruction.
The National College Credit Recommendation Service (NCCRS) was established by the New York State Board of Regents in 1973 as part of their commitment to increasing access to higher education for adults. NCCRS evaluates formal courses sponsored by non-collegiate organizations throughout the United States and makes recommendations on their comparability to college-level courses.
Descriptions of courses that have been recommended for credit at the undergraduate or graduate level are published in CCR On-line (the on-line successor to the Program’s print Directory, College Credit Recommendations), which is used by colleges and universities nationwide as a guide in granting credit to individuals who have successfully completed the courses described in it. The fact that these courses have been favorably evaluated does not mean that you are automatically awarded credit upon completing it. The credit recommendation for this course is just that - a “recommendation.” Academic institutions are free to accept, reject, or modify it. You will not have received credit for this course until a college or university that you apply to awards you credit and puts it on a transcript. If credit is to be awarded, the course must be applicable in some way to your program of study at the college and must not duplicate a course that you have already taken.
How do you take the first step toward obtaining credit? If you are already enrolled in a college degree program, talk with your faculty advisor about receiving credit for this course. If you are not enrolled, you should apply for credit at the same time you formally apply for admission to a degree program. In either case, you will need to provide the college with official verification of successful course completion.
At your request, we will send a college an official record of your course work. You may have taken other courses here that are recommended for college credit. For more information contact: Deputy Chief Bozza at the NCFSA 516-572- 8600 If you encounter difficulties in obtaining credit for a course because the college is not familiar with NCCRS or because it has not established a policy on awarding credit for non-collegiate course work, get in touch with the organization representative indicated above or with the National College Credit Recommendation Service, Education Building Addition, Room 975, 89 Washington Avenue, Albany, New York 12234, Tel. 518-486-2070, Fax 518-486-1853, or e-mail [email protected] . The Director of NCCRS will be happy to send a letter of introduction about the Program to college officials on your behalf.
