Fire Service Extension

West Virginia University Fire Service Extension
(WVU-FSE) is a leader in providing critical, high
quality training to the state’s emergency responders. Firefighters serve as the first line of defense in emergencies well beyond fire and rescue operations, including chemical spills, terrorist threats and weapons
of mass destruction.

Dedication Ceremony and news coverage of the opening of the new academy.

Mobile Fire Training Unit - The new two-story, 53-foot-long Mobile Fire Training Unit challenges firefighters with smoke, flames, sights, sounds and obstacles of commercial and residential structural fires. The safe system is controlled from an observation room by a lead instructor who can shut down the operations and ventilate the unit’s interior within 45 to 60 seconds. Environmentally sound, the Mobile Fire Training Unit is fueled by clean-burning propane. It generates benign smoke that does not disturb the community.
