not the same as in-classroom training- I assume your is an online course-- you need hands on hazmat ops to get the 29cfr 1910.120 (r)(ii) or watever it is. You get that training through FF1 courses or being volunteer[/QUOTE
this was a class i took 5 days long 8 hr each day. 3days on books and 2 days hands on. i just want to know if its good for the 5points
It is up to the investigator if it is good enough or not. For fdny, the class needs to be based around donning ppe in hospital settings. You may be good tho. Make sure it is has the 120.(q)(r)(ii) or watever specific training. Thats what they are looking for, not just 1910.120
cool man thanks.. also do i put this cert and all my other certs in the same place? there was a spot on the app for fdny called selective certs? wasn't sure about that.It is up to the investigator if it is good enough or not.

My advice, put every cert. you have. That's what I did back when I filled for 3024. I ended up getting five points I didn't think I would get. Also, don't be afraid to list a cert. in two different places. If you think it applies to the part you are filling out, list it. As far as for your HAZMAT. I would encourage you to read 29 CFR 1910.120(q)(6)(ii). It does not state any of the training must be hands on. It is a very vague and generic standard.

This is not true. NPQ, IFSAC, and state HAZMAT classes for firefighters/first responders go above and beyond what is required by the federal regulation. Online HAZMAT courses are usually specifically designed to meet CFR 1910.120.
well i have one with 29cfr 1910.120(q)(6)(iii) which is a technician level. its higher then what they want. i just want to know if it still good.This is not true.

I am certified to the technician level as well. I was given the five points back in 2012. If for some reason they don't' give you those points, you can appeal the score. You then could state your case that the technician level is higher and more in-depth than operations.
To be honest I think a lot of guys are over thinking this portion of the process. I understand that everyone wants to get the best list number than can, but ultimately you only have so much control over what score you get. List every applicable cert. you have. If you feel the need, list your certs. in multiple places on the application. If you feel like the score you got wasn't correct, appeal it and try to get those additional points.
I'm sure you'll get those five points for operations, so I wouldn't stress to much about it.
when do you take the nys exam?
I have not yet signed up for a class. I will be very soon

So if you have FF1 do you get the 5 points since you went through the hazmat?
Your question has already been answered. Take a look a few pages back and you will find multiple answers.If I take my nys emt exam on 8/21 and have on-site scoring, can I submit an application before that? Does it matter if I submit the application before my emt cert is official?

So you dont have your emt certification yet?
Great news , list number in the upper 500's so I hope your right. I think I have a prayer at January , if not April . Has anyone who has taken the agility on May 10th not received their intake yet? Still waiting on that and I'm sure others are thinking like myself that the notice got lost in the mail. Thanks
So you dont have your emt certification yet?
