The Priority Trainee Program is currently open for registration.
The program can be used for both Wildland Fire Qualifications and Prescribed Fire Qualifications. In general, this is for critical needs positions which can be almost any position in the Finance, Logistics, and Planning sections, and middle management (TFLD, DIVS, FELB, HEQB, HMGB, etc.) and above for operational qualifications. If you have a task book that is close to being signed off and have had trouble getting an assignment this may be a good avenue to get that assignment. As a reminder they have added prescribed fire positions, if individuals have an interest, they will work with the regional fuels group and make sure they have access to the list as well.
You can register at the link below. You will need a Wildland Fire Learning Portal account to access the application.
