How it all got started
![]() |
The idea of bringing trainers and students together on the Internet was conceived by Clayton Searle, a retired Los Angeles Police Detective. Searle initially provided training to police officers by founding the International Narcotics Interdiction Association (INIA). He found that advertising in national police and fire publications and mailing flyers was expensive, time consuming and had a poor response. Adding last minute classes or finding students to fill spots in seminars proved almost impossible. In short, there was no "one" place where fire fighters and law enforcement officers could find classes being offered nationwide. Firetraining.net is the solution to that problem. |
