TEXAS COMMISSION ON FIRE PROTECTION

This means that any student who completes FF-I or FF-II training and takes either the initial or second-attempt state certification written exam on or after January 1, 2027, will be tested under the updated standard. This includes all required performance skills.

Please communicate this information to all individuals who may be affected. Our goal is to ensure everyone has ample time to prepare for this transition.

If you have any questions, please contact the Testing Division at testing@tcfp.texas.gov or 512-379-7430.

This requirement was enacted by the Texas Legislature during the most recent legislative session and is now a mandatory component of fire inspector certification.
