What does a Cadet
Do?
A cadet has many
opportunities. A cadet is able to learn about the
fire service. They attended a training twice a
month where they are in a classroom setting, as well
as, outside doing some hands on practice. Aside
from the learning aspect, cadets are permitted to
respond incidents to help out with basic outside of
the danger services. By doing this, it leaves the
firefighters to do their work and not tie them up
with time taking cleanup and other activities. It
also gives a chance for the cadets to experience the
job from a real aspect.

program helps young people to experience this
demanding job before they have to choose their

recruitment. Many Cadets are the next generation of
firefighters, and it supplies Englewood with good
quality individuals that are competent at what they
do.
