Fire Alarm Systems Training at Cape Fear Community College has partnered with the American Society of Certified Engineering Technicians (ASCET) to provide membership and training opportunities for the fire alarm industry.

The advantages of being a member of a national association will broaden ones horizon and create opportunities. Individuals who participate in our Basic or Advanced programs will be eligible for student membership in ASCET. A few of the benefits of membership include networking with colleagues, continuing education, the ability to earn NICET Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points and other technical resources. Participation in FAST’s Internship Program coupled with ASCET’s Employment Referral Service will provide an excellent path to a career in the fire protection industry.

ASCET was formed in 1964 at an organizational meeting sponsored by the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) to pursue the concept of an "engineering team", and other mutual goals of engineering professionals. NSPE also created the National Institute for Certification in Engineering Technologies or NICET, as "a non-profit organization created to serve the certification needs of the engineering technology community". Fire Alarm Systems Training endorses and encourages NICET certification.

Our Wilmington (NC) Chapter will hold it's kick-off meeting in late June. Please contact me if you would like to attend. New ASCET members will qualified for a discount to join!
