The Henderson Fire Department graduated its largest-ever class of 33 new firefighters from its academy today.
To prepare for a career as a Henderson firefighter, the graduating class endured 20 weeks of intense training that covered education in hazardous chemicals, emergency medical procedures, firefighting skills, and more.
"This class of 33 new firefighters is a testament to how seriously Henderson takes public safety," said Henderson Fire Chief Shawn White. "Our City will continue to maintain a premier fire department, and these new recruits will help keep Henderson one of the safest cities in the country."
Graduates will soon move into full-time firefighting positions throughout the department’s 13 fire stations, including Station 92 in West Henderson, currently under construction and opening in early 2025. The next recruitment period is expected to open in the fall. Those interested in a career in the fire service can visit the Henderson Fire Department’s new recruitment website, JoinHendersonFire.com.
