It will take approximately 2.5 hours per chapter and there are 37 chapters in the course covering all of Firefighter 1 and 2 (Chapters 1-22, 25-26, 35-37), a basic Fire/EMS (Chapters 23-24), Hazmat to the Operations Level (Chapters 27-33), and Terrorism (Chapter 34). You may pick and choose the chapters that are appropriate for your organization.
