You know what, I actually don’t know the answer to that question. I did a walkthrough of the new station a few weeks ago and was talking with the on duty guys, he told me that and I didn’t really ask anything else regarding it.

No worries my dude. There’s a lot of optional credentials out there.
A lot get national credentials and you get recognition for a certain percentage being credentialed which to me is great.
There’s an ISO rating everyone gets based on a variety of factors. But that’s an insurance rating.
Ultimately and sadly no one (unless the township that recognizes them demands it) has to do it. A volunteer company can say pay your $1 and do 8 hours or Haz Mat training and you are a FF in Pa.
Thankfully a lot of those types of departments have gone by the way of the DoDo. But it’s still the bar and it’s kind of scary not know who’s coming or how well trained they are.
