ESA’s New Advanced Fire Certification Approved for Licensing in Iowa
The Iowa State Fire Marshal recently approved the Certified Fire Alarm Designer (CFAD) designation from the Electronic Security Association’s (ESA)National Training School (NTS) as an acceptable form of training for applicants seeking Fire Alarm System Contractor licensing in the state of Iowa.
Iowa licensing laws state that alarm system contractors and installers must have prior training and be certified by the fire marshal. In order to attain proper licensing, individuals must apply for endorsements in the scope of work that they perform. CFAD is one of three acceptable certification programs for the Fire Alarm System Contractor endorsement in Iowa.
