Successful completion of the Henson College Certificate in the Fire Service Leadership Program is a prerequisite for Lieutenants who wish to take the three identified courses in the Henson College Certificate in Fire Service Administration, which are the prerequisites to write the Captain's Promotional Exam.

Distance education, because of its flexibility, is particularly suitable for Fire Departments that might not have staffing levels or budgets to support leaves of absence. Fire Departments personnel can start our certificate programs in Fall, Winter or Spring terms, while remaining in their regular work environment and apply new skills and theories as they are aquired.
