Courses are shared between the two colleges and will be offered exclusively online.

It is also recommended for students who have not yet decided the field they will enter or the four-year institution they will attend. The degree program is designed to respond to the high demand for trained fire service professionals. Successful students may utilize experience and knowledge gained through course study to advance to graduate programs in fire service, as well as to fulfill discipline-specific certification requirements for the International Fire Service Accreditation Congress (IFSAC).
