Dates
Do you have the dates for the 2024 Firemanship Conference?
The dates for our next Conference will be July 15-19, 2024.
Cost
What is the cost of the 2024 Firemanship Conference?
The vision for Firemanship 2024 comes from a MISSION-FIRST MINDSET. We can only do this by making training accessible. Registration for the lecture series, HOT classes, and workshops will be a flat $1.00 each, with the option to make a voluntary donation toward the conference value - whether partial, full, or considerate. This will be a true pay-it-forward initiative- so we can give back to each other. It’s no secret that a conference of this scale will have extraordinary expenses. This has never been done on this scale before, but we believe in and love our great fire service.
Full Conference is Valued at $775
- 3-Day Lecture Series $375
- 1-Day HOT Class $200
- 2-Day HOT Class $400
- 1-Day Workshop $200
Transparency: we will be enacting a strong cancellation policy to maintain the integrity of this conference and the accessibility we are intending to provide. Sign up with 110% commitment.
Registration
When does registration open?

What's the Cancellation Policy?
Firemanship is committed to providing exceptional training opportunities. No shows and late cancellations have a negative impact on another person's ability to receive training. For this reason, the following policy will be strictly enacted.
A 30-day notice for a HOT/Workshop class cancellation and/or a 2-week notice for a Lecture Series cancellation is required for a refund request. If you cancel outside of the notice dates, the card you provide upon registration will be charged with the full suggested value of the course(s). If the original payment/donation value did not meet the full suggested price during the initial registration, only the remaining amount will be charged. Cancellation notifications will need to come through email contact to firemanshipconference@gmail.com.
A Lecture Series/HOT Classes/Workshop spot can be transferred to another person within 3-days notice from the start of the conference (July 15, 2024). Transfers will only change the attendee's name; refunds will NOT be handled by Firemanship. Transfer notifications will need to come through email contact to firemanshipconference@gmail.com.
I'm registering more than 1 person. Can I just use a Purchase Order?
No, this year we will not be allowing purchase orders or invoicing. We only allow online payments through our RegFox link. Registration for multiple individuals is allowed, but due to the extended time that group registration requires, you might lose your spot. We recommend individual registrations.
I’ve registered… now what?
Keep a close eye on our Facebook / Instagram / website for all the goods -including info, updates, changes, information, etc. Please make sure the email address you use for your registration is active and easily accessible by you.
