Private On-site Test Prep Fire Life Safety Director (Fire or Non-Fire)

Whether you need to prepare for the FDNY Fire Life Safety Director (FLSD) on-site examination, the NY Fire Safety Institute (NYFSI) offers private on-site test preparation sessions at the location of the Fire Department on-site test. There are two parts to the on-site test (Fire and Non-Fire). You can take each prep separately or both together. This page is for one subject Fire Prep or Non-Fire Prep. If you want a prep for Fire and Non-Fire at the same time go to Fire & Non-Fire On-Site Prep

Private sessions are limited to 1 or 2 candidates maximum, and should be scheduled with NYFSI once the candidate receives their FDNY on-site exam date.
