It's official! I'm certified...
Just became a State certified Fire and Emergency Services Instructor.
 Passed the NJ state exam.( Was worried about it but apparently aced it.) Received my certification and license. Hopefully can score a gig at one of the fire academies. Now I get to pass on my years of knowledge and experience.

All right Vinny. Thanks for your continue service on and off the classroom. Back in my university days, in our school of Technology dept., there was a Fire Protection major. Most of the classes were taught by Ph.Ds and not too many classes were taught by guys like yourself with plenty of actual field experience.

Very cool, congrats. Instructors that have been there, done that are always vastly superior to those that learned it in the classroom.

Congrats, Vinny! You're one of the best people on this board, and probably in your community as well.
