AFSA Online Store - Correspondence Courses

To assist fire sprinkler contractors in strengthening their bottom line, the American Fire Sprinkler Association (AFSA) offers an Apprenticeship Training Series — Levels I, II, III & IV, an apprenticeship training course for sprinkler fitters.

The Apprenticeship Training Series is a correspondence course designed specifically for training apprentices in the fire sprinkler installation trade. This practical training program, written from a contractor’s point of view, has been developed through combined efforts of technical experts and AFSA contractor members.

Each level of the series includes photographs, drawings and tables to provide the latest graphic as well as written instruction on proper installation techniques and use of tools. The levels are divided into modules. Each module includes a series of lessons that cover a particular topic within the scope of that module. Test materials are provided to allow student testing on a periodic basis. Tests will then be forwarded to AFSA headquarters for grading, and the company will be notified of each student’s test score.

This course is available in your choice of paper or online testing. With online testing, you save money on postage (no mailing tests for grading) and the process is faster with no bubble sheets to complete. For security purposes, you are strongly encouraged to request a proctor password be set up to prevent the student from testing without proctor approval. This is requested at the time you place your order.. The DVDs are designed to provide additional audiovisual instruction that reinforces skills learned in the Contren® Learning Series.
