Register Now for the 2025 NVFC Training Summit
The National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC) is excited to announce that registration is now open for the 2025 NVFC Training Summit, taking place June 20-21 in Salt Lake City, UT. This signature conference provides an opportunity for firefighters and EMS providers to participate in valuable classroom training, idea sharing, and networking. Three learning tracks will focus on responder health and safety, volunteer recruitment and retention, and emergency service leadership.
The Summit includes two days of classroom-based breakout sessions with nationally-known instructors, keynote speakers, general sessions, networking events, and a vendor expo. The agenda features a selection of 18 courses relating to critical topics impacting the volunteer emergency services, with a focus on physical and behavioral health, working within NFPA standards, onboarding new volunteer responders, best practices for retaining volunteers, and leadership.

While the Training Summit is a great value, the NVFC recognizes that cost can be a challenge. To remove this barrier and help offset the costs, stipends are available that reimburse up to $800 of conference-related expenses, including hotel, airfare/mileage/transportation, and the event registration fee. To be eligible for a stipend, you must be a current member of the NVFC. Not a member? Join by January 1 for just $21 at www.nvfc.org/join (as of January 2, 2025, the rate is $24).
The 2025 NVFC Training Summit will be held at the Salt Lake City Marriott City Center. The hotel is in downtown Salt Lake City, just a short walk from tourist attractions, coffee shops, restaurants, and a light rail station to take you across the city. The event will kick off with an ice cream social and registration on June 19 and include a networking social event after classes on June 20. Throughout the event, attendees will have the opportunity to visit vendor tables. Sponsorships are available – click here for more information.
