Community home page

The Illinois Fire Service Institute is the state fire academy, located at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign since 1980. IFSI grew out of the university's Firemanship Training Program (1954-1980) and the Illinois Fire College (1925-present), the oldest annual fire college in the nation hosted on campus each June. The mission of the Illinois Fire Service Institute is to help firefighters do their work through training, education, information, and research.
