Training Colleges - Firefighters

CFA runs eight of the nine Victorian Emergency Management Training Centres (VEMTC). The campuses provide firefighters and recruits with practical firefighting scenarios in a controlled and realistic environment. This is essential in developing and maintaining the skills needed to fulfil our mission of protecting the lives and property of Victorian communities.

The training campuses are purpose-built, specialising in the simulation of scenarios that replicate unique field conditions specific to their region.

The CFA VEMTC sites are at:

  • Central Highlands (Ballan)
  • Bangholme
  • Wangaratta
  • Longerenong
  • Penshurst
  • Huntly
  • West Sale
  • Sunraysia (Mildura) 

On 23 Nov 2021, the new VEMTC Central Highlands in Ballan was officially opened.
