Dear Students, Here are some frequently asked questions and answers: Is there a “wait list” for full classes? Answer: No. We suggest that you continue to try to register up until noon the day before as other students may withdraw due to conflicts that occur. Please see number 5 if you need to withdraw. Please see number 6 if you get a “No show” on your transcript. I don’t have access to the Firefighter Cert app on the myNJ site. (www.nj.gov). How do I get this? Answer: Please email us at firesafety@kean.edu to request an authorization code. Please include your first and last name, email address and DFS ID number with your request. I don’t see credit for a class I took on the myNJ site. How do I get this credited? Answer: Please email us at firesafety@kean.edu with your name, DFS ID number, the name of the class, the date of the class and the location of the class so we can check the roster. Please allow at least 30 days from the date of the class to give us time to receive the roster. I don’t see credit for a class I attended on the LMS site where I register for classes. How do I get this corrected? (https://keanolt.ourclassroom.net/) Answer: We do NOT currently use this site for credit tracking. The site you should check is www.nj.gov. This is where your myNJ account is located. Please see question 2 if your account doesn’t have the firefighter cert app. How do I withdraw from a class? Answer: Go to our website, https://www.keanfiresafety.com/new-process-to-withdraw-from-courses/ and follow the instructions on this page. Please note, withdraws must be completed before 8:30 a.m. the day before the class. How do I get a “No show” removed from my transcript? Answer: For classes that are full prior to the class date, we will no longer change a “No show” to a withdraw if you fail to attend, unless you have an emergency. We have many students who are asking to attend full classes. Please withdraw if you are unable to attend. If you have an emergency, please email us at firesafety@kean.edu with relevant information (reason, date of class, location, name of class, your DFS ID, your name, etc.)

Dear Students, We have made some corrections to the courses on the LMS platform where registration/enrollment takes place. Please note the following changes: The correct date for Introduction to Fire Pumps and Dive into NFPA 20 is Wednesday, June 4 at Sprinkler Fitter’s Local Union 696. The correct dates for Water Supplies and Sprinkler Systems at Chubb are Wednesday, March 26 and Friday, April 4. We would like to remind you to please use the Course Brochure for all planning purposes and please confirm that your registration matches the information in the Course Brochure.  We ask you to verify your course selections using the brochure, because in the event of a conflict of information, we go by what is published in the Course Brochure pdf. The Course Brochure pdf can be found at the following link: https://www.keanfiresafety.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/FireSafety_Spring2025_1.pdf . You can also access it by going directly to our website, www.keanfiresafety.com and then scrolling over Course Brochure. The drop-down menu on our site also provides you with a link to the CEU Matrix which is printable as a separate document. Additionally, email confirmations should be verified against the Course Brochure pdf. The brochure contains information regarding how to register, class start times and locations, as well as academy addresses and driving directions. You can use the CEU Matrix at the end of the brochure to find the page number and credit information for each class. The “course catalogue” on the registration page (the site you’re directed to after clicking the Login button) is NOT the same as the Course Brochure pdf on our website. Lastly, once you’re registered for classes, please check the blogs on our website on a frequent basis and before travelling to any academy. We will post important information such as delays, cancellations, and/or changes in that space. We also send email notifications, but due to the varying and technical nature of firewalls, security, etc., we have seen an increase in blocked email and/or emails being directed to junk/spam files; this is why it is important to be in the habit of checking our blogs and a scrolling through them to the last one you previously remember reading. If you need to withdraw from any class, please follow the instructions found on our website. From our home page, hover over the words “Course Brochure” click on “New Process to Withdraw” or click this link: https://www.keanfiresafety.com/new-process-to-withdraw-from-courses/  we ask that you withdraw at least 24 hours prior to the start of the class. Thank you for your support and consideration in this effort at communication. See you in class… The Fire Safety Training Program Staff

Dear Students, Additional seats have been added to the following classes. This is in addition to classes that were updated earlier this week. We ask that if you’re already registered for a Core class this spring, that you wait to enroll in any more until the week before the class, so that other folks have an opportunity to attend at least one of the Core classes. The list of  Core classes may be found on page 17 of the Course Brochure. https://www.keanfiresafety.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/FireSafety_Spring2025_1.pdf   Gloucester County Fire Academy Tuesday, April 8, 2025 Code Update Gloucester County Fire Academy Saturday, April 12, 2025 Solar Power; Strategy & Tactics for 1st Responders Gloucester County Fire Academy Saturday, April 26, 2025 RECEO-VS Revisited for Private Dwelling Fires Gloucester County Fire Academy Friday, May 2, 2025 Hazardous Materials-Bulk Storage to Big Box Stores Gloucester County Fire Academy Saturday, May 10, 2025 Leadership for the Fire Service Instructor Bergen County Fire Academy Thursday, April 10, 2025 Code Update Bergen County Fire Academy Wednesday, May 21, 2025 Active and Passive Fire Protection in the Built Environment
