The firefighter selection process is conducted by the Muskoka Lakes Fire Department. Successful applicants will complete our in-house 10-week recruit training program, delivered by Muskoka Lakes’ own officers. This program ensures that you learn directly from your peers while building strong connections with your station and fellow recruits.
The training combines classroom instruction, hands-on practice, proficiency checks, and written/practical testing on all core aspects of structural firefighting. At the conclusion of training, recruits will complete provincial certification testing under NFPA standards
