Public Safety Training Facilities

Harper College Emergency Services Training Center

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Harper College’s fire science technology program and soon-to-be-established fire training academy needed a proximate training center for fire training, while nearby fire departments had to travel outside their jurisdictions to access training facilities with limited schedule availability. Harper College’s $9.3M emergency services training center solves both problems by providing a classroom building and 4-story, gas-fired training tower at the corner of campus. The 6,800 sf tower facilitates fire and rescue training in residential, apartment, and commercial scenarios.
