Last week we got the opportunity to conduct some valuable training in structures prior to them being demolished by the property owner. We would like to thank them for giving us an entire week to train in these buildings. The ability to perform real world exercises like this are vital to our success in emergency situations.

Ever wonder what it takes to be an Engineer with the Sedalia Fire Department?

We have extremely high expectations of this position as everything begins and ends with them, and seconds count.

We do not rely on GPS. We expect out Engineers to know where they are going on every call for service. Below you will see a portion of the map test which includes addressing as well. There is a total of 175 questions with a minimum score of 80%.

Next is general knowledge about the apparatus and operation. Along with our Standard Operating Procedures. This is another 150 questions with a 75% minimum score.

After completing these steps you move to the practical portion where you must perform all the functions of the position at various simulated responses and emergency scenes.

Not to mention the standard portions like an interview and employee assessment that takes into account everyday performance, education, years of service, etc.

We do all of this to ensure that when you call 911, we will be there when you need us without delay and ready to handle your worst day as efficiently as possible.
