Training Bureau

The training officer for the North Oldham Department is Firefighter/Paramedic Captain Dominic Maritt.  Dominic is a Level 3 fire instructor as well as a Paramedic and EMT instructor. 
Career Firefighters must achieve 400 hours in specific topics for certification and must also successfully pass the CPAT (Candidate Physical Agility Test).  Firefighters are required to be Emergency Medical Technicians.  

North Oldham uses the IFSTA Essentials (8th Edition) as a primary reference for all firefighting instruction.  Additional training opportunities are plentiful through our agency's partnership with Oldham County EMS, neighboring departments and the KY Fire Commission.
