These persons are referred to collectively as "non-rostered" and, by definition, are not employed to perform fire suppression duties.

The NIPSTA program is the only program of its kind in Illinois. All training is accomplished on a 20-acre campus in a safe, controlled environment that includes a variety of specialized indoor and outdoor training props. The nine-week curriculum is state-certified, which results in candidates for employment who are fit-for-duty and ready-to-work.
