Make a Difference
You can make a difference in our community by using the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training offered by Puget Sound Fire to save lives and protect property.
On a normal day, emergency services personnel are the best trained and equipped to handle emergencies and we all count on them for their expertise. However, following a catastrophic disaster, emergency response personnel may not be able to help everyone immediately, because of the size of the area affected, loss of communications, and impassable roads.
The Puget Sound Fire CERT program serves the areas of Kent, Covington, SeaTac/Burien and Fire District 37.
Classes
This class meets once a week for eight weeks.
Course Description
CERT training gives you the skills to help save and sustain lives following a disaster until help arrives. Take a look at the course description.
