Congratulations to Class 26 of the Eastern Michigan University School of Fire Staff & Command Executive Leadership Program who graduated this weekend! Firefighters to Fire Chiefs came together for the last 9 months to participate in seminars, site visits, and group projects that all focused on building their skills to lead the men and women of the fire service. The project culminated in a 25 page research paper and presentation on a topic that had a direct impact on their department. We are excited to say that some of these projects are already in the process of being implemented in their home agencies! Most importantly, Class 26 has developed a large network of lifelong friends who they know they can reach out to when the need arises. Fire Chief Greg Flynn of the West Bloomfield Fire Department gave an inspirational keynote to the audience and Co-Class Presidents Captain Kevin Snell and Battalion Chief Nick Birchmeier also reminded the class about how much they have accomplished and told stories of the camaraderie that was built. In addition to receiving plaques for graduation, some of the students were recognized for their outstanding efforts throughout the program. The Top Research Award is based up the final scores and impact of the student's research paper and their presentation. The Top Academic Award is given to the student who finished with the highest academic scores at the end of the program, including all projects, assignments, and tests. Top Research Award: Lieutenant James Hill-Harris, Detroit Fire Department Honorable Mention: Captain Martin Cook, Milford Fire Department Honorable Mention: Captain Justin Steeby, Grand Rapids Fire Department Top Academic Award: Fire Marshal Kyle Lewis, Northville Township Fire Department Honorable Mention: Captain Martin Cook, Milford Fire Department Honorable Mention: Captain EMS Coordinator Kevin Snell, Oxford Fire Department Fire Chief Dave Feichtner (2023 Award Recipient) presented Battalion Chief Mark Fankhauser of the Grand Rapids Fire Department with the Fire Staff & Command Alumni Award!
