Our courses meet or exceed NFPA standards, and Ricky Rescue is also SACS accredited. 

Owned and operated by firefighters, Ricky Rescue understands the educational needs of firefighters more than anyone. Whether acquiring required CEU’s or obtaining certifications to earn your next promotion, Ricky Rescue’s mission is to ensure that fire and emergency service personnel are able to achieve their career goals.

Convenient Classes

Ricky Rescue knows that traveling to in-person classes and training programs at the state fire colleges is not ideal for everyone. That’s why the team at Ricky Rescue developed affordable, convenient and trusted distance learning programs. Open enrollment for self-paced online fire certificate courses and hybrid or blended learning is offered all year round. 

In addition to distance learning, Ricky Rescue has satellite locations and instructors conveniently placed throughout Florida and Tennessee with plans to expand across the country. Designed to modernize the way first responders approach training, Ricky Rescue Training Academy offers a full-circle educational facility that utilizes both online and hybrid classes to activate and educate students and unlock their full fire service potential. A diverse group of instructors provides a comprehensive approach to learning that includes cognitive and skills-based performance training. 

Ongoing Education

Courses offered by Ricky Rescue Training Academy meet pre-certification requirements for Florida and Tennessee state certification tests and provide CEU’s for credential renewal requirements. Students can transfer earned certificates towards a college degree seamlessly thanks to agreements with Columbia Southern University and Waldorf University.
