The Burbank Fire Department proudly offers Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training to educate and empower community members to respond effectively during emergencies. Participants will gain valuable hands-on experience and essential knowledge to assist themselves, their families, neighbors, and communities when disasters occur.
CERT training is conducted over four consecutive Saturdays, divided into eight comprehensive modules. Completion of all modules (all four days) is required to receive your certificate; however, participants with scheduling conflicts can conveniently make up missed modules in future Burbank CERT classes.
