The National Interagency Prescribed Fire Training Center (NIPFTC) couldn't have the success it enjoys without our cooperators. These host units work with our attendees, both the 20-Day Session modules and the Agency Administrators Workshop, to provide valuable learning opportunities. This entails having sites already prepped and plans in place, and then allowing a group of strangers to run the burn. The dedication of these folks and the trust that’s been built between NIPFTC and the cooperators can’t be underestimated. We currently have 250+ sites that host NIPFTC participants and staff. Below are links to the agencies and organizations that support NIPFTC’s mission with exemplary fire programs.
