Associate DegreesAssociate Degree in Fire ManagementPart of the Public Safety Institute The associate degree in fire management focuses on the need to provide the community with trained professionals who can provide leadership and reduce the human and economic impact of fires in their communities. Trained, educated fire fighters also play a pivotal role in Homeland Security. It is estimated that more then 500,000 trained professionals will be needed in six years. The major required and elective courses in the fire management program are derived from the model curriculum adopted by the Fire and Emergency Services Higher Education (FESHE) network. The FESHE was established by U.S. Fire Administration's National Fire Academy (NFA), a part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
