An elite school for the DEP in fire safety! A lively, structured and warm student life. Everyone is welcome and the learning is of exceptional quality. The facilities are equipped with several simulation equipment for practice! The DEP is recognized by the Ministry of Education and 100% by the Canadian Armed Forces! A promising future with rewarding employment prospects!
Disappointed with the lack of organization of the Academy of firefighters. We were the 1st cohort to start in January. During the 25 skills we had different teachers and the way of teaching often different from one teacher to another which creates confusion when it comes to exams. On the day of the exam if you fail you have the right to a retake but after that you have to pay between $ 500-1000 to retake all the skill.
Not to mention the end of the year! 2 months before we practiced for the graduation which was supposed to take place at the end of October unfortunately a week before the graduation date we receive an email saying the graduation will be postponed to June 2016 with the other cohort. the reasons are "budget restrictions" & "re-assessment period" including that when you start a cohort you have to think about their end of the year from the start and not a month before the end of the school year. The disappointment of the students and parents who had taken leave for that date. So all that to say a private school that will cost you over $ 20,000 that could be better organized
We showed up at the open door last year and we saw a disorganized Academy. The only thing that had a structure was the finance table with a $ 20000 bill for a DEP.
Our son was finally accepted at Notre-Dame-De-Foy College
In hindsight, we hear that students who go to DEC after a visit to Mirabel are quickly noticed by their lack of training and this is even conveyed in a large center like Montreal.
By far the best 10 months of my life! The teachers and staff are very friendly and welcoming! They took the time to explain things in English because I don t speak French very well. All in all a very good school!
charge 20 000 for a piece of paper that is worth nothing
I know someone that attended the school. They lie to you just to make you sign the contract. Very disappointed.
do not pay the eyes of the heads for this school. I went there and was extremely disappointed. Only HIC, I made good friends. Pitiful school
Racist teachers
One teacher wanted me to fail.
I was try compare word French to English
And had told me to not speak English.
They had promised me to help for language but after signing attending school they told me bring dictionary.
When my father passed away I needed a break .they told me to forget my father passed away and than one teacher threatened me if I leave they will charge me full course even if not begun.
If you want to do fire fight go to Ontario
For my part, I enrolled my boy at the Fire Academy of Mirabel for the year 2013-2014. I am very bitter about the level of education presented. Out of 140 students enrolled, only 19 will have successfully qualified for the Montmorency fire classification tests for 2014-2015. AND IN ADDITION .......... the 19 students who have been admitted to the 2014-2015 technique have a significant academic delay compared to the others. For my part .... the Firefighters Academy .... it's $ 20,000.00 from MIS AU FIRE.
