Good Afternoon everyone.

I am currently in the process of writing a Project Outline Phase for the accreditation of St. Andrew's, which hypothetically I would like to see take place in the next three to four years. This report will be detailed down to the delegation of responsibilities of various members of our fire department, will state the project objectives, will provide a resource requirement chart of the things needed to ascertain this goal, and based on my work breakdown structure will develop a responsibility matrix and a graphic display of a contingency plan, which hopefully will not be required.

What I need from all of you lovely patrons of firefighter nation, is any information on how your particular department became accredited, if they are.
Which company did you go through? What was the overall budget requirements? What sort of positive effect did the accreditation have on your ability to serve your customers? What sort of advice do you have for a department that is looking to become accredited?


Any help would be wonderful, and perhaps when I have this paper completed, I may post it.

Thanks for your time.
