Where firefighters come to talk training

State Mandated Training Requirements

The SC State Firefighters' Assoc. has developed several Strategic Goals including minimum training requirements for Firefighters and Fire Officers. I agree that some "minimum requirements" may be needed. Even though the Chief of each FD already is responsible for his department. SC is near 85% volunteer and increased training requirements may only lead to fewer firefighters.
What are your thoughts?
Are you from SC?
Does your state already have requirements like this? If so what are they?
