1 California Incident Command Certification System (CICCS)
2 What is the California Incident Command Certification System? CICCS Is: A certification system for positions within the Incident Command System. A Performance Based System utilizing established minimum training standards and documented experience.
3 CICCS Terminology Certification: The process whereby the State Fire Marshal s Office confirms through the local fire chief, OES operational area or OES region that an individual has completed the required coursework and has obtained documented experience. Qualification: The process whereby the fire chief affirms physical fitness and currency in the position and makes the individual available to the mutual aid system.
4 History Of CICCS 1995 SFMO, OES & Cal Chiefs met with 230 Chiefs and Training Officers to discuss the use & implementation of ICS. The 1991 Tunnel Fire (Oakland Hills) & the 1993 California Firestorms after action reports cited ICS training deficiencies. Discussed was the creation of a system to..standardize certification and qualifications for ICS positions.
5 History Of CICCS 1996 After the October 1996 Calabasas fire, a task force comprised of LA County, Glendale & LA City developed the Calabasas Fire Report. A total of 56 recommendations were developed to enhance fire agencies capability to combat wildland fire incidents and provide for safety of personnel. There was agreement that the 12 highest priority recommendations be forwarded to FIRESCOPE for review and implementation on a statewide basis.
6 History Of CICCS April 1997 OES Fire & Rescue Service Advisory Committee/FIRESCOPE Board of Directors were presented with the findings of the Calabasas Fire Report by P.Michael Freeman. Three of the recommendations involved Development of qualifications & experience requirements for all fire fighters responding to mutual aid wildland/urban interface incidents.
7 History Of CICCS June 1997 The Training Chief, CDF/SFMO presented a recommendation to the Board that the Board of Directors should appoint members to a working group chaired by SFMO to develop standards for all- risk incident mgt using NWGC as a model October 1997 OES Fire & Rescue Service Advisory Committee/FIRESCOPE Board of Directors..agreed that SFMO should lead in the development of State of California Incident Management Certification and Qualification for the State.
8 History Of CICCS 1998 California Incident Command Certification (CICCS) Task Force established with representatives from CDF/SFMS; CDF; OES; Chico FD; Riverside FD; LA County FD & State Board of Fire Services, CSFA CICCS Task Force presents recommendations to the State Board of Fire Services who agreed on the following elements: 1. Voluntary Fire Department Participation 2. Historical Recognition of Prior Experience 3. Specific System Components 4. Utilizing NWCG 310-1
9 History Of CICCS November 2000 CICCS Adopted by State Board of Fire Services & OES Fire & Rescue Service Advisory Committee /FIRESCOPE Board of Directors. August 1, 2002 Implementation by the State Fire Marshals Office and the Governors Office of Emergency Services Fire & Rescue Branch.
10 Why Do We Need The CICCS? Calabasas After Action Report Findings: Development of qualification and experience requirements for personnel assigned to wildland/urban interface incidents Develop minimum training standards A standard should be developed defining the qualification and experience requirements for personnel in key field positions
