Good afternoon,

Due to hosting a Hazardous Materials Technician course this year, we felt it would be beneficial to also offer a Hazardous Materials Operations Refresher (HMOR) at the Monroe County Public Safety Center. This refresher course serves several important purposes:

It satisfies the refresher requirement for those planning to enroll in the HazMat Technician course.
It provides an opportunity for candidates preparing to complete the Hazardous Materials Operations Pro Board Certification.
It allows anyone who may have missed their department's in-house HazMat Operations refresher to remain current.
HazMat Operations Refresher (HMOR)

Dates: September 17 and September 24, 2026
Time: 7:00 PM (1900 hrs)
Location: Monroe County Public Safety Center

To register for the refresher, please complete and return the MCPSC registration form. No walk-in registrations will be accepted, as all participants must be registered in advance.

Candidates who already possess the HazMat Awareness Pro Board Certification and wish to challenge the HazMat Operations Pro Board examination must register through Buck's Community College Campus Marketplace using the following FSC numbers:

Practical Examination: FSC-0103.017
Written Examination: FSC-0978.018

Testing Date: September 12, 2026
Time: 8:00 AM (0800 hrs)

Please note that no walk-ins will be permitted. Registration and payment through Buck's Campus Marketplace must be completed prior to the examination date.

HazMat Technician Course

Individuals interested in enrolling in the Hazardous Materials Technician course who meet all prerequisite requirements should register through the Pennsylvania State Fire Academy's Acadis system. The Pennsylvania State Fire Academy will collect the Pro Board testing fee at the time of registration.

We look forward to seeing you in class.

Respectfully,
