4 Scott Hall circa 1902 WELCOME TO THE ONTARIO FIRE COLLEGE I am very proud to be serving as interim Principal of the Ontario Fire College at a time of change and evolution, amongst other public safety training agencies in the country. The Ontario Fire College is a diverse and welcoming campus community, with an ideal location for study, debate, and critical analysis, as well as hands-on skill-building that respects our collective commitment to safety and the environment. The College is large enough to garner international recognition, yet small enough that local residents in the Muskoka District include the College in their strong sense of community and lifelong connections around this facility. The College has a long and successful track record of educating fire service personnel since opening its doors on August 22, This success has been the result of many factors: the contributions of our talented and dedicated faculty and staff; the diverse experiences and shared appetite for knowledge amongst our students; the passion and active engagement of our alumni and supporters to the College s ongoing evolution in changing times; and the vision of Ontario s fire service and public safety leaders. That vision has guided the College in its most recent undertaking to adopt international standards (National Fire Protection Association) for training. Like any major change, the transition has been a process, not an event. Much has been achieved so far with the support and guidance of the fire service and other public safety partners. We count on this collaborative relationship to help realize the full potential of the Ontario Fire College going forward. It is a continuous source of inspiration to be better - to be the best - when we know that the skills learned here ( confidence and competence ) make a difference in the lives of citizens in communities across Ontario. Sincerely, Carol-Lynn Chambers, B.Sc. MPA CIH CSP Acting Principal 4
