Women's Firefighting Career Information Session

These sessions are designed for you to interact with women working within the industry who can provide you with firsthand knowledge of what it takes to be an RFPS firefighter. Attendees to the session will have the opportunity to hear from women currently working in the industry, as they walk you through the day-to-day life of an RFPS firefighter and answer questions related to the position. The presentation will focus on various components of our work including a day in the life, roles and responsibilities, job requirements and demonstrations of job-specific tasks.

Anyone attending one of these sessions is free to relax, enjoy the presentations, and interact with the presenters. For those who choose, an opportunity will be provided to take part in demonstrations to personally experience various firefighter tasks. If you make the choice to take part in the demonstrations, you will be required to complete a waiver form. If you are under the age of 18, you will require a parent or guardians’ signature. Parents/guardians of younger participants are welcome to observe.
