In this episode of Tailboard Talk, hosts Craig Nelson, Jeff Wallin, and Chris Rasmussen discuss the critical role of the National Fire Academy (NFA) amid recent developments leading to its unexpected closure. With over two decades of experience in public safety, the hosts discuss how the NFA has been indispensable in providing tailored training for fire service professionals, from officer development to fire investigation techniques. The conversation highlights the impacts of local departments’ reduced accessibility to these resources. This challenge is especially prevalent for smaller volunteer agencies struggling with funding for training. The hosts encourage listeners to engage with legislators to advocate for the NFA’s reinstatement and its unparalleled importance in promoting community safety and enhancing the skills of first responders.
