Many fire departments have volunteer programs. Find out if there are any in your area and sign up to volunteer if you meet their requirements. Keep in good physical shape because this is important for any fire-safety professional. You can also add to your skills by taking CPR and first-aid classes. Read Fire Engineering (http://www.fireengineering.com) to learn more about fire prevention techniques. Ask your teacher or counselor to arrange a presentation by a fire inspector.
