For anyone living in the Bay Area and interested in taking S-290: Intermediate Wildland Fire Behavior, Alameda County Training Officers and the East Bay Regional Park District are hosting this class in Oakland on March 31 - April 4, 2008. There are no prerequisites as all S-190 material will be covered.

Hands down, this is the single most important life-safety course in the NWCG system of certifications. Anyone in a supervisory position on a wildland fire is REQUIRED to have it and every firefighter SHOULD have it.
