Firefighter Training Requirements - Firehouse Forums

I am doing some research on the MINIMUM requirement for a brand new firefighter to be able to begin structural firefighting. I want to know what your state laws requires for training. I also would like to know what the MINIMUM requirement is to be a fire officer in your state.
