Fire Service Technology Advisory Board
The Las Positas College Fire Service Technology program has an industry advisory board that meets twice a year to gather information from industry partners related to our Career & Technical Education (CTE) program. Our advisory board member’s knowledge and expertise in their field qualify them as highly valuable members of the advisory board and their participation is greatly appreciated.
If you are interested in joining the advisory board please contact the Program Coordinator, Jeff Seaton, at jseaton@laspositascollege.edu and/or the Program Outreach Specialist, Anne Kennedy, at akennedy@laspositascollege.edu
