The South Carolina State Firefighters’ Association’s Fire Service Improvement Conference runs January 21 through 24, 2027 in Columbia. FSIC is a hands-on training conference, and classes run from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Formats include one-, two- and three-day hands-on classes plus Friday and Saturday classroom seminars. The Friday keynote is Sean Duffy, on January 22 at 7:00 PM.
Registration opened October 1, 2026, and SCSFA members get preference. Class sizes are capped with no waiting list once a class fills, and the Truck and Engine classes are already sold out. If you want a seat, move now.
The four hands-on classes held at the South Carolina State Fire Academy require a liability form signed by your fire chief or designee.
