The certification program in Illinois is not mandatory, but a department may utilize the programs for training even though certification is not pursued. The training programs developed by this division meet or exceed the requirements of NFPA and when utilized, will meet the requirements mandated by the Illinois Department of Labor (IDOL). For requirements mandated by IDOL please call 217/785-7056.
