About LinkBacksThere is a strong possibility that I will be moving to Maryland from New Jersey in the coming months. I was wondering if my NJ FF-1 certification would be valid in MD. If there is no reciprocity between the two states, is there a way to challenge the MD test without going through an academy again?
Thanks!

Which county? If it does not transfer then you can go to MFRI and challenege it where you take the written and then do all the skills. Contact the station you're joining. They'll be able to give you more information.

thats like moving from a huge turd to a smaller turd...
no matter how you look at it, your still living in....
but, all jokes aside, you are moving on up in the world. I have heard that getting a paid gig, be it day crew, part time or full time is a lot easier in MD than NJ.
Arent you going to miss the "Jersey Shore?"The Box. You opened it. We Came...

Of course I'll miss the Jersey Shore, just not the people who tend to migrate there in the summertime and trash it.

You might want to contact Harve Woods direct. Who knows, you might get real lucky and end up working for him. You'll have to feed and harness the horses tho Originally Posted by RescueThree2

I thought Kentland had to approve all transfers to MD...
Just a typical moronic, childish, idiotic munchkin.

Rescue 1 in particularJust because it's called a throw bag, doesn't mean you throw the whole bag... you're supposed to hold onto the rope.

And...........
Send me a PM when you find out which County you'll be in. I can get you the info on that one and MFRI, and you can work out the details from there......
