The South Carolina Fire Academy’s facility is the most comprehensive state fire training facility in the U.S. It is on 208 acres just off Monticello Road (S.C. 215), four miles north of Exit 68 off Interstate 20. The campus has a dormitory facility for 116 people and a cafeteria. There is an auditorium and five classrooms. The facility is one of a select few to feature state-of-the-art, computerized, propane-fueled props. These give the Fire Academy’s live fire training programs consistency, while increasing the level of student safety. The Fire Academy also features some traditional props that allow for a variety of training scenarios.

  • Once a year I spend an entire day here. It can be pretty fun. I like putting out the huge oil fires. The food at the cafeteria is pretty good. They hire inmates from the correctional facility to make and serve the food.
