In 2021, the Louisiana Legislature supported efforts to transfer responsibility for statewide firefighter and emergency training from LSU FETI to the Office of the State Fire Marshal to run the new Fire & Emergency Training Academy, effective January 1, 2022. During this transition period, LSU and the State Fire Marshal are coordinating on all training classes, and the dates reflected within this website and below should be considered current and official.

Certification Testing Schedule 2022

If you are interested in becoming a valid test site, please send an e-mail to the certification office at feticert@lsu.edu. This process involves conducting a site visit of the requested facility so please make sure you are making the request in a timely manner if it coincides with a specific course you are teaching.

Once your test site has been approved and you have received the Certification testing site approval letter, actual test dates can be requested 30 days in advance. Not all test dates are guaranteed. Test dates will be granted based on location, proctor availability, Certification schedule, and quantity of test sites already scheduled during the request time frame.

To register to take an exam. at one of the test dates listed below, a test request form must be submitted on or before the “Request by” date listed below. Test requests must be completely filled out. Test requests received after the “Request by” date will not be accepted. These dates are put in place to ensure that enough time is available to process, prepare, and send the testing materials to the proctor.

Please note that if the level you are requesting requires a practical and/or proof of First Aid/CPR, these documents must be verified one business day prior to the exam date. If the required prerequisite documentation is not verified on time, the tester will no longer be allowed to test. If you are unsure what the prerequisites for a certain level are, view the certification requirements.
