Travis County Training Division

Launch a rewarding Career in the Fire Service:

Are you looking for a challenging and meaningful career where you can make a real difference? Firefighters do far more than fight fires—they provide emergency medical care, respond first in times of crisis, and serve as trusted leaders in their communities. A career in fire protection equips you with the knowledge, skills, and professionalism needed to protect lives and property. Through a combination of hands-on training, classroom instruction, and rigorous physical and practical exercises, students develop the competencies required to enter the profession as confident, entry level firefighters ready to serve their communities.
