National Fire Academy Reporting Act

The National Fire Academy Reporting Act would require the Administrator of the National Academy for Fire Prevention and Control to submit an annual report to Congress each year by November 30, detailing the Academy’s courses and programs from the prior fiscal year. The report must include data on the number of fire departments and personnel (career vs. volunteer) who attended training, the number of courses offered and cancelled, and funding allocations to state and local fire service training programs and student attendees. This requirement applies to the National Academy for Fire Prevention and Control and affects Congress, which will receive the reports, and the Academy, which must compile and submit them. The bill amends the Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act of 1974 to establish this reporting obligation.
