When the new Fire Code was introduced in 2008, it greatly changed the requirements for the upkeep of Sprinkler and Standpipe systems. Current sprinkler and standpipe certificates of fitness have been discontinued and will no longer be renewed when they reach their expiration date. There are now only four Certificate of Fitness titles for Sprinkler and Standpipe systems:l S-11 Residential Sprinkler Systeml S-12 Citywide Sprinkler Systeml S-13 Citywide Standpipe Systeml S-14 Standpipe for Multi-Zone SystemWhen any certificate of fitness has to be renewed, the holder will need to take one or all of the above titles, the most common being the S-12 and S-13. While there is no mandatory class required to sit for the test, City Tech is offer- ing this prep course to assist students in successfully attaining the certificate of fitness. The course will cover all the material necessary for any and all of the four titles.

In September of 2011, a new Onsite Examination for Fire Safety Director was instituted by the Fire Department. Added to

Fire Command Station aptitude module, a fire scenario, and gen- eral knowledge of fire protection systems, the new onsite includes an additional fire scenario, two building impairment or other issues, two training modules and an increased building and fire safety section. When introduced by the Fire Department, their recommendation on a reasonable time frame to prepare for the test was 30 hours of reading the study guide and then 50 hours of familiarization with their building and fire protection systems.This prep course will cover information beyond the regular onsite issues covered in FSD courses. The complete FDNY Onsite Study Guide will be reviewed with special emphasis on mandatory and important items that, if not stated during the test, result in automatic failures for candidates and the possible revocation of any existing FSD certification for a different building.

Searching for employment is a full time job, one that requires appropriate tools. For job seekers, a résumé is a personal advertisement. A strong résumé may net an interview and a weak résumé often ends up in the “circular file.” With guidance you will develop a résumé that presents you in the best light. It will talk about résumé styles, objectives, personal profiles and content that may give you a competitive edge. You must bring a résumé.

New healthcare delivery systems call for greater coordination of care,

particularly case management for patients with complex medical needs. The advent of electronic medical records makes it possible for physicians to access full patient records with the ability to monitor procedures, medications and doctors’ appointments. Patient Care Navigators, also called Case Managers, work with physicians to ensure that their patients maintain the regimens and medications needed to improve their health. This course in community health will cover such topics as chronic diseases, culture and values in healthcare disparities, health coaching, patient care, motivational interviewing and skills needed to work with patients in treatment. PCNs are part of a larger healthcare team working to ensure that patients follow their treatment plans.
