TOMORROW, IT ALL BEGINS!

We are excited to welcome 17 Firefighter/EMTs as they begin their Modified Recruit Training Program with the Carroll County Department of Fire & EMS!

While these professionals are already credentialed and bring valuable experience and certifications with them, their journey with Carroll County Department of Fire & EMS includes additional & refresher national professional certifications and department-specific training designed to prepare them to serve our community at the highest level.

Over the coming weeks, they’ll build on the skills they already possess, learn the Carroll County way, and become familiar with our operations, expectations, equipment, procedures, and culture.

17 professionals. One team. One mission.

We’re excited to watch this group learn, train, challenge themselves, and become an integral part of the Carroll County Department of Fire & EMS family.

Welcome to Carroll County! We’re glad you’re here—and we can’t wait to see what you accomplish!
