Dear Georgia Licensed Fire Equipment Professional,
GAFSED continues to strive to be the support to the fire extinguisher and fire suppression system dealers that we set out to be over eight years ago. The new Rules and Regulations are in place, thanks to our Association along with many other companies in our Industry. Now that they are in place, GAFSED is coordinating a block of training to help each of us pass the NAFED portable and pre-engineered systems test as required for our 2009 licenses and permits. The training date for portables is June 27th, 2008. The NAFED Test will be given July 14th thru the 18th.
We invite you to take advantage of these primer classes today as classes are expected to fill fast. The GAFSED Board would also like to take this opportunity to invite you to join our membership for 2008 and receive member discounts on registration, the savings incurred with this training are quite substantial. GAFSED has come a long way in 8 years and as with time had many changes. We are excited about the future and invite everyone to become involved.
To make membership dues valuable, GAFSED will also be offering a CEU opportunity by co-sponsoring a Badger Portable Fire Extinguisher Training later this year. We will be offering numerous discounts to our members for upcoming training sessions. For more information on GAFSED see more of our web site or or contact one of our board members listed under the directors tab.
