6 FIRE INSPECTOR I CERTIFICATION PROGRAM NFPA s MISSION Founded in 1896, NFPA is a global, nonprofit organization devoted to eliminating death, injury, property and economic loss due to fire, electrical and related hazards. MISSION OF NFPA CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS The overall mission of NFPA s Certification Program is to enhance human and organizational performance as related to the use and application of NFPA codes and standards. FIRE INSPECTOR CERTIFICATION PROGRAM The NFPA Fire Inspector Certification Program was created in response to repeated requests by local entities, state agencies, and national organizations for certification programs founded on the NFPA 1031, Standard for Professional Qualifications for Fire Inspector and Plan Examiner, and other applicable NFPA codes and standards. These requests suggested that NFPA be the main catalyst and ultimate certifying body for such programs. In late 1996, an independent organization conducted research that validated this need, and in 1998 the current fire inspector I certification program became operational. PRO BOARD ACCREDITATION NFPA received its Pro Board accreditation on April 1, CFI-I, CFI-II, and CFPE certifications are now recognized by the Pro Board. Those candidates taking the NFPA exam after April 1, 2015, will be entered into the Pro Board registry and receive a certificate with both the NFPA and Pro Board seals. CFI-I PROGRAM GOALS: Enhance professionalism within the fire inspection community Ensure a uniform, fair process for certification that is accessible to everyone who is eligible Ensure proficiency in the use of codes and standards Facilitate success for those seeking certification Promote professional development through continuous learning Recognize and provide evidence of competence as related to NFPA 1031, Standard for Professional Qualifications for Fire Inspector and Plan Examiner FEATURES & BENEFITS CFI-I credential holders receive the following benefits: A Pro Board recognized certification Recognition as an expert by your colleagues Greater confidence in your abilities Improved job performance Career advancement opportunities Certificate holders also receive a NFPA / Pro Board CFI-I certificate, wallet card and lapel pin that further highlights their accomplishment. ELIGIBILITY A candidate for the CFI-I certification must meet the following minimum eligibility requirement before being allowed to sit for the CFI-I exam: The attainment of a high school diploma or equivalent ELIGIBILITY AUDIT A percentage of accepted applications are randomly selected for an eligibility audit by the NFPA certification staff. Submission of your application indicates your agreement to comply with audit terms. Any incorrect information or misrepresentation provided in the application process may result in sanctions in accordance with the discipline policy NFPA 12/1/2017

8 FIRE INSPECTOR I CERTIFICATION PROGRAM REFERENCE MATERIALS It is the candidate s responsibility to obtain materials needed for study purposes and to have present during the examination. The following list contains resources that may be used in preparing for and taking the examination. All examination questions are compatible with these code sets. Please verify which set you require, with your jurisdiction or certification partnership agency NFPA Code Set: NFPA 1, Fire Code Ed. NFPA 13, Installation of Sprinkler Systems Ed. NFPA 25, Standard for the ITM of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems Ed. NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm Code Ed. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code Ed NFPA Code Set: NFPA 1, Fire Code Ed. NFPA 13, Installation of Sprinkler Systems Ed. NFPA 25, Standard for the ITM of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems Ed. NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm Code Ed. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code Ed. These NFPA codes and standards have been conveniently packaged into reference sets and are available for people registering for the CFI-I exam at a discounted price, only through the NFPA certification department. Refer to the CFI-I application form to order these references. Please be sure to indicate which set you would like on your order form. EXAM PREPARATION The NFPA CFI-I examination is based on the job performance requirements for the fire inspector I level that are defined in chapter 4 of the 2014 Edition of NFPA 1031, Standard for Professional Qualification for Fire Inspector and Plans Examiner. (See NFPA 1031 requirements section.) Review Reference Materials - It is not necessary to memorize the reference materials, but it is important to know what content is found in each of the referenced NFPA documents. For example, NFPA 1, Fire Code, covers all aspects of fire protection and prevention utilized in other NFPA codes and standards. Know the general format of the NFPA documents. Each NFPA document is laid out in the same way and divided into similar sections, beginning with administration and definitions, followed by the specific requirements in the code. Also, look for tables in the documents that summarize requirements. These tips will help you find specific information quickly during the examination. Case Studies - The case studies help guide the candidate through solving a problem by researching a code. The ability to look at a question or problem related to a code issue, identify the relevant code or standard, and then locate the correct answer is one of the most essential skills a fire inspector must develop. Try the activity on your own, and then look at the solution (defined responses) that is provided to see if you are on track. Follow the path through the codes until you can see how the problem was addressed and answered. During the examination, understanding this process will help you to identify the issue, and use code documents to answer the questions NFPA 12/1/2017

9 FIRE INSPECTOR I CERTIFICATION PROGRAM Additional Materials - In addition to the NFPA resources listed above, the NFPA Fire and Life Safety Inspection Manual, 9th Edition, The Fire Protection Handbook, 20 th Edition, and the IFSTA Fire Inspection and Code Enforcement Manual, 7 th Edition are excellent resources for study and review. Please keep in mind that their use is not allowed during the examination. Sample Questions The Exam Study Guide contains a number of sample questions to help you become familiar with similar types of questions found on the examination. The answers to the sample questions can be found on the last page of the section. Sample Question - What is the occupant load factor used for determining the required means of egress for an existing business occupancy? (A) 20 sq ft (1.9 sq m) (B) 50 sq ft (4.6 sq m) (C) 100 sq ft (9.3 sq m) (D) 200 sq ft (18.6 sq m) Analyze the Question - This is an occupancy question. Find the right reference document Means of egress provisions and other occupancy questions are addressed by NFPA 101, Life Safety Code. EXAM FORMATS NFPA offers a paper and pencil (in the United States and Canada only) as well as a computer-based version of the CFI-I examination. Both formats are four-hour open-book examinations, containing 110 multiple-choice questions. Ten of these questions are field test questions and will not impact the candidate s score. NFPA analyzes the performance of these field test items before including them as scored items. The examination is only available in English. It is designed to evaluate the candidate s knowledge of fire inspection principles and code application skills at the level of fire inspector I (as defined in NFPA 1031). Paper and Pencil (US and Canada only) - The written examination can be taken in one of two ways: 1. As directed by the NFPA program administrator via an NFPA approved proctor; usually a fire department training director, or at a university or college-testing center (where a fee may be charged, for which the candidate is responsible) 2. Under the direction of the program administrator of a partnering agency. The program administrator or proctor should be consulted for written examination scheduling. Computer Based - The examination is available in a computer-based format at test assessment centers throughout the world. Upon receipt of the CFI-I examination application and test fee, the candidate will receive their authorization letter with instructions on how to schedule the computer based examination.

RESULTS Paper and Pencil - The paper and pencil examination will be evaluated and the results communicated by mail within 3 weeks to the candidate. Results will not be provided via the telephone. Computer Based The computer based examination allows candidates to receive their results immediately upon completion of the examination. The CFI-I exam is a pass/fail exam where you must reach a scaled score of 70% to pass the exam. Scaled scoring relates to a statistical procedure used to compare the difficulty of alternate forms of an exam, such that no matter what form of a test is taken, all candidates will be treated fairly and consistently. Your actual number (%) exam score will never be reported to you for either a passing score or a failed score. If you pass the exam, you will only be told that you passed (meaning that you reached or exceeded the scaled score of 70%). If you fail the exam, you NFPA 12/1/2017

12 FIRE INSPECTOR I CERTIFICATION PROGRAM will be provided with a list of the four (4) exam domains and the percent (%) of items you answered correctly for each domain. Note: This is not your exam score it is just a percent (%) correct value for each domain. This domain percent (%) correct information is provided so you may focus on areas of improvement for your retest. See the CFI-I exam weighted criteria table in the appendix section of this handbook for a listing of the CFI-I exam domains. RETEST If you fail your exam, you are permitted to retest two additional times (completing a retest application and paying a retest fee each time) within 12 months from the day your original CFI-I application was accepted. If you fail the examination three times within this period, you must wait until the 12 month testing period expires before you will be allowed to restart the registration process. The retest application is found in the CFI-I candidate handbook as well as online at The cost to retest is $175 USD. CONFIDENTIALITY The identity and information concerning all candidates is confidential. Information regarding exam results are only communicated in writing from the NFPA certification department directly to the candidate. Exam results are never provided over the phone. PRACTICUM PHASE After successfully completing the examination, candidates will need to complete the practicum phase of the program. The objective of the practicum phase is to provide the CFI-I candidate with an opportunity to demonstrate the application of the skills and knowledge that are used on the job through actual field inspections, and to satisfy any NFPA 1031 JPR s that may not have appeared on the examination. Successful completion of the practicum is a requirement for certification. Candidates have 6 months from passing the examination to complete and submit the practicum phase. The evaluation parameters are based on the requirements of chapter 4 in NFPA 1031, NFPA 1, and related sections in the NFPA Fire and Life Safety Inspection Manual, 9 th edition. Procedures - Once the written examination is successfully completed, the candidate will use the practicum phase exercises workbook that includes: 12 target occupancies Performance checklists Verification forms for submittal. Seven of the 12 inspection exercises must be conducted and their related performance checklists completed (2 mandatory and 5 elective). This is to ensure appropriate evaluations are conducted at each of the sites. The candidate will check-off items identified in the performance checklist. Each verification form must be signed by either, (a) the building owner or property manager, or (b) a supervisor, fire chief, fire prevention officer, or partnering agency program administrator. The signatory of the verification forms is responsible for confirming the activities were completed. If above option (b) is chosen, then a single individual must be designated prior to the practicum phase being undertaken, and this individual must sign all of the occupancy checklists. Mandatory Activities - A site visit and performance checklist must be completed for each of the following: Sprinklered facility Commercial kitchen facility (in either a restaurant, school, or health care facility) These different mandatory activities can be completed as part of a visit to one or more elective occupancies (see below) or at a separate facility. A separate verification form must be completed for each NFPA 12/1/2017

13 FIRE INSPECTOR I CERTIFICATION PROGRAM Elective Activities - Site visits, performance checklists, and verification forms must be completed for any five (5) of the following occupancy types: Educational occupancy (elementary school) Assembly occupancy (for 50 or more people) Apartment building with 16 or more units and two or more stories, or a motel/hotel with 20 or more guest rooms Mercantile occupancy between 3,000 and 12,000 sq. ft. (279 and 1,115 sq. m.) in area Business/office occupancy with 5,000 or less sq. ft. (465 sq. m.) Industrial/manufacturing occupancy between 5,000 and 30,000 sq. ft. (465 and 2,787 sq. m.) in area Maintenance shop (industrial occupancy) Hot work facility (industrial cutting, welding, grinding occupancy) Storage occupancy (warehouse with noncombustible components on wood pallets) Health care occupancy (nursing home/limited-care facility) Verification Forms - Once the practicum phase requirements have been fulfilled, the verification forms (located at the back of the workbook) should be sent directly to NFPA s certification department for auditing one for each inspection. The audit is to verify that the candidate performed the appropriate practical exercises. Once this audit is complete, and the other certification program requirements are met, then you will receive your certification by mail from NFPA. If the candidate entered the CFI-I program through a partnering agency, the seven verification forms should be sent to the partnering agency. USE OF YOUR CFI-I CREDENTIAL Once granted the CFI-I credential, the certified may refer to themselves as a CFI-I credential holder as long as the certified has an active certification status. The certified is authorized to use the CFI-I designation after their name on business cards, personal letterhead, resumes, websites and in their signature. RECERTIFICATION Once a candidate has been certified as a fire inspector I, recertification every three years is required. In order to maintain currency and relevancy in the profession, CFI-I certification holders are required to demonstrate their continuing participation in professional development activities in the fire inspection field of practice. NFPA awards points towards recertification for various activities. Sixty (60) points of professional development activities related to fire inspection must be earned and submitted during the 3-year recertification cycle. Certification holders are required to complete and return the Summary of Recertification Points Form attesting that they have 60 recertification points. Back up documentation is not required when submitting the Summary of Recertification Points Form. Recertification Audit Certification holders will be subject to a random audit of their CFI-I recertification documentation for a period of up to six (6) months after their recertification date. Accordingly, certification holders are expected to retain recertification documentation in their possession for six (6) months beyond their recertification date. Recertification forms are available at In order to recertify, the certificant must accumulate continuing education points. It is important that you begin accumulating the required points as soon as possible NFPA 12/1/2017

14 FIRE INSPECTOR I CERTIFICATION PROGRAM All activities must be clearly related to the fire inspector and plan examiner field of practice. If college courses are declared for training hours, the same course cannot be taken twice within the 3-year period, and the candidate must convert credit hours to actual hours spent in the classroom. The certified must submit documented evidence of a total of 60 credit points from the following categories: Category Allotment Minimum Points Maximum Points Training One point per contact hour Fifteen (15) Sixty (60) Teaching Two points per contact hour Zero (0) Forty-five (45) Professional Practice ½ point per inspection Zero (0) Thirty (30) Writing for Publication Five points per article Zero (0) Fifteen (15) Writing for Publication Ten points per book Zero (0) Fifteen (15) Association Membership One point per membership per year Zero (0) Ten (10) Documentation Reasonable proof of attendance or participation in the described categories will be accepted. Reasonable includes: Course certificates Letters of attestment from course sponsors College transcripts Letters from employers Other evidence as required RENEWAL If NFPA does not receive the necessary recertification materials within the three year period, the certification holder will no longer be considered a certified fire inspector, and will no longer be entitled to use the CFI-I credential in professional communications. To regain certification, the candidate must successfully complete the entire CFI-I certification program (subject to the applicable application fees).

43 CERTIFICATION PROGRAM FOR FIRE INSPECTOR I CASE STUDIES FOR CERTIFIED FIRE INSPECTOR Instructions Following are four case studies. Choose only two of these case studies, read them carefully, and respond to the questions at the end of each. You will have to use NFPA codes and standards to answer the questions, and you must obtain them for yourself. When you answer a question, refer to the code or standard edition and section numbers. Also, use your fire inspection and code enforcement experience. You should complete this activity prior to taking the examination. The purpose of the case studies are to help you prepare for the examination and practicum phase. You will not be graded on your responses. Once you have answered all the questions for at least two of the case studies, you can use the case study defined responses in the candidate handbook to evaluate your answers. This is simply an answer sheet that provides a comprehensive and accurate analysis of the case studies. The defined responses were established by the NFPA Fire Inspector Certification Advisory Committee for this certification program. If you did well in your analysis, then you should prepare for the examination by reviewing the publications identified in the list of references in the applicant handbook. If your responses were inaccurate, then spend extra time reviewing the topics where weaknesses were detected before moving to the examination study guide. If you have questions, please contact your program administrator or the NFPA Certification Department. 12/12/16 1 CASE STUDIES Copyright NFPA 2014

Your initial entry into the facility proceeds as planned with all of the introductions made and the procedures for your inspection explained. During your inspection, you note the following items relative to the structure itself. In the warehouse, metal frames are stored in racks that are 8 ft (2.4 m) high. The bicycle seats are made primarily of foam rubber and plastic and are stored in boxes, to a height of 6 ft (1.8 m) in piles, boxes are stored on boxes. Within the boxes, each seat is individually wrapped in polyethylene bags. Assembled tires on wheels are stored on racks specially designed for the tire assemblies, to a height of 6 ft (1.8 m). In the flammable liquids storage room, which is 20 ft x 20 ft (6.1 m x 6.1 m) and located in the corner of the manufacturing area, three 55-gallon (208 L) drums of paint of different colors are stored. This room also contains a number of 5-gallon (19 L) and 1-gallon (3.8 L) cans of paint and thinners on pallets, with no storage higher than 5 ft (1.5 m). There is a firewall between the warehouse and manufacturing area. The building is a total of 36,000 sq ft (3,344 sq m) in area; this includes a 4,000 sq ft (372 sq m) office, a 12,000 sq ft (1,115 sq m) warehouse and a 20,000 sq ft (1,858 sq m) assembly area where the bikes are put together and packaged. Once packaged, the bikes are shipped to a distributor for sale. Your inspection yields the following: The aisles in the area where the bikes are assembled are blocked to the point of being unidentifiable. In the warehouse, the aisles are blocked in some areas by parts storage. All areas of the building are sprinklered. There is a fire alarm system in the building that monitors the sprinkler system, its control valves, and smoke detectors in the office building. There are a number of fire extinguishers scattered throughout the facility, of differing types. Fire doors exist in the wall between the office and manufacturing areas, and the manufacturing and warehouse areas. 12/12/16 3 CASE STUDIES Copyright NFPA 2014

73 EXAMINATION STUDY GUIDE FOR CERTIFIED FIRE INSPECTOR I The objective of this examination study guide is to provide resource materials and study recommendations relating to preparation for the NFPA CFI-I examination. It is written and designed to give you assistance in improving your testing skills. To make the task of preparing for the examination more manageable, this examination study guide has been organized into five steps: 1. Using the Examination Study Guide 2. Preparation Recommendations 3. Testing and Scoring 4. Final Preparation 5. Test Protocol

74 STEP 1 - USING THE EXAMINATION STUDY GUIDE Step 1 (Using the Examination Study Guide) To maximize the efficiency of your preparation, begin by studying this chapter of the examination study guide. It has been carefully organized and written to provide you with important information to assist you in successfully completing the NFPA CFI-I Examination. There is no easy approach to prepare for the successful completion of the examination. However, through the use of this examination study guide, your approach will be more systematic and logical. Step 2 (Preparation Recommendations) The examination study guide provides you with preparation recommendations including good study habits, resources you will need for the examination, what is important to know and understand for taking the examination and additional references that are useful as you prepare. The preparation recommendations will allow you to develop a strategy for successfully completing the examination. Once you have an understanding of what is expected of you, and have outlined your strategy for success, proceed to step 3 of the examination study guide, testing and scoring. Step 3 (Testing and Scoring) This step begins by providing a description of the examination, and how it will be scored. Once you have an understanding of the mechanics, proceed with the un-timed sample examination. This will allow you to pinpoint the strengths and weaknesses in your knowledge and preparation for the NFPA CFI-I Examination. Step 4 (Final Preparation) Step 4 will assist you in developing your strategy for success, and to improve upon your weaknesses. This step further develops the skills necessary to promote successful completion of the examination. Once you have fine-tuned your strategy, and made improvements where necessary, you will take a timed sample examination. This sample is comprised of 25 questions, and includes an answer key. Step 5 (Test Protocol) An outline of the procedures pertaining to the examination protocol is found in this section. Your primary objective in preparing for the examination is to pass. Other objectives such as learning new material and reviewing old material are critical toward this objective. Begin your study by developing a strategy for success.

75 STEP 2 - PREPARATION RECOMMENDATIONS A good strategy for success includes preparation. In preparing for study, determine first what you need to learn, choose study materials, and select a quiet, comfortable place for study. Before you begin, check to make sure you have everything you need. Try to avoid interruptions for any reason. Developing a study plan will allow you to learn the most as you study. Include setting goals in your study plan. Review what you have studied as often as possible. The more you review, the more you will retain. Examination Resources The following list contains the resources to be used in preparing for and to be used during the examination. Please verify which set is appropriate for you with your program administrator. The 2012 Code Set: NFPA 1, 2012 Ed. NFPA 13, 2010 Ed. OR The 2015 Code Set: NFPA 1, 2015 Ed. NFPA 13, 2013 Ed. NFPA 25, 2011 Ed. NFPA 72, 2010 Ed. NFPA 25, 2014 Ed. NFPA 72, 2013 Ed. NFPA 101, 2012 Ed. NFPA 101, 2015 Ed. Remember, it is your responsibility to obtain materials you will need for study purposes and to have present during the examination. Once you have access to, or have obtained, all the resource materials necessary for study, what are the important points to focus on? Begin by learning the layout of your resource materials. For example, NFPA 1, Fire Code, covers all aspects of fire protection and prevention utilized in other NFPA codes and standards. Each NFPA document is divided into similar sections, beginning with administration and definitions, followed by the specific requirements in the code. The better you understand the layout of the resources, the easier it will be to find answers to questions during the examination. Develop an understanding of the general content of each resource. For example, NFPA 13, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems, covers all aspects of the installation of fire protection systems. With an understanding of the resource, it will be easier to determine the applicable document for answers to questions during the examination. Additional Materials - Beyond the Codes In addition to the resources listed above, the NFPA Fire and Life Safety Inspection Manual, 8th Edition, The Fire Protection Handbook, 20 th Edition, and the IFSTA Fire Inspection and Code Enforcement Manual, 7th Edition are excellent resources for study and review. Obtain and include these materials for your study plan when possible. The NFPA CFI-I examination is a four-hour functionally oriented exam. It is comprised of 100 multiple-choice questions. The examination is designed to evaluate your knowledge of fire inspection principles and code application skills at the level of fire inspector I (as defined in NFPA 1031). Experience indicates that the full four hours is needed to complete the examination.

76 During the examination, you will interpret and apply code-related material in response to the selected test questions. As previously stated, pacing yourself and knowing the general layout and content of the NFPA codes and standards are very important to your strategy for success. Sample Question and Analysis The following steps will assist you in finding the answer to a question. Question - What is the occupant load factor used for determining the required means of egress for an existing business occupancy? (A) 20 sq ft (1.9 sq m) (B) 50 sq ft (4.6 sq m) (C) 100 sq ft (9.3 sq m) (D) 200 sq ft (18.6 sq m) Analyze the Question - This question refers to the requirement of occupancy load factors for determining means of egress. Find the right reference document Means of egress provisions are addressed by NFPA 101, Life Safety Code. Annex B of the codes and standards give you a numerical listing of all NFPA codes and standards. You can use this to search for additional titles that may be appropriate for the particular question. Check the contents page and/or index - By scanning the contents and/or the index pages you should be able to find the appropriate chapter or section. In this case, checking the content page, you will find it listed under Chapter 7.3, Capacity of Means of Egress. The index gives you, however, a better reference.
