The Canadian Fire Rescue College (CFRC) has received approval from Red Deer County’s municipal planning commission to open a firefighter training program in Springbrook. Students will be able to take the Advanced I and II Training Program at the Springbrook location, where four training sessions will be held each year. CFRC plans to use two buildings and open space in the Harvard Business Park to train firefighters. The college is also seeking licensing to add an Enhanced Firefighter Training Program, which would include a three-month practicum and potentially double class sizes.
