Wisconsin Fire Service Training

The Wisconsin Technical College System (WTCS) recently honored Dennis Myers of Western Technical College during a Western Technical College Advisory Committee meeting for his dedication and leadership as committee chair for the Hazardous Materials and Fire Inspector curriculum updates.

Through countless hours of leadership, mentorship, and collaboration, Dennis helped guide these important statewide initiatives, ensuring Wisconsin's fire service training and certification programs continue to meet national standards and the evolving needs of the fire service.

In accepting the recognition, Dennis emphasized that these accomplishments would not have been possible without the dedication and expertise of the many committee members who contributed their time and knowledge throughout the process as well.
