About the Event

We are proud to partner with Fire Service Women BC in presenting a hands-on firefighter workshop to women interested in a career in firefighting. 

Fire Service Women BC is a not-for-profit society serving women working in the fire service in British Columbia. This includes unionized members (paid-on-call), volunteers, exempt fire chief officers, forestry and industrial firefighters, and others who aspire to become firefighters. Established in early 2022, this organization developed a mandate to build a supportive and inclusive fire service that benefits all.

This informative and interactive day will be filled with presentations, hands-on firefighting activities, and presentations from local fire departments about hiring opportunities.
