SFFD Igniting The Flame 2023: The Making of a San Francisco Firefighter

The journey of becoming a firefighter is no easy feat, it requires navigating and overcoming challenges to protect and serve the community. Established in 1866, the San Francisco Fire Department has evolved and grown to represent the community and meet their needs along the way. The Division of Training is responsible for training all new members entering the department, as well as, developing and providing comprehensive fire suppression and emergency medical service instruction to all members of the department.

This video provides a glimpse into the 130th Recruit Academy Class 21-week training program in preparation to take on one of the most challenging and rewarding professions in the world, becoming a firefighter in the San Francisco Fire Department.
