The My Training Documents system is a secure, centralized hub where Healthy Forest Alliance members can easily access, manage, and download all of their fire training records in one place. Designed to support wildfire and prescribed fire practitioners, this system stores certificates of completion, NWCG course records, fitness and medical documentation, and other required training materials essential for career development and compliance.

Members can quickly upload new documents, retrieve past records, and maintain an organized, up-to-date training history without digging through emails or paper files. The system integrates seamlessly with HFA’s training, Task Book, and Incident Qualification Card programs, helping members verify prerequisites, request Task Book initiation, and support Red Card processing.

Whether you are tracking progress toward advanced qualifications, preparing for an upcoming course, or meeting agency documentation requirements, My Training Documents ensures your records are always available, accurate, and ready when you need them.

The Prescribed Fire Practitioner Experience Database is a centralized system built to help Healthy Forest Alliance members accurately document and track their hands-on prescribed fire experience. Practitioners can log burn events, operational roles, acres treated, fuel types, ignition methods, weather conditions, and supervision received, creating a clear and professional record of field experience.

This database supports long-term career development by aligning experience tracking with NWCG standards and California Prescribed Fire Burn Boss (CARX) pathways. Logged entries can be used to support Position Task Book evaluations, demonstrate prerequisite experience, and streamline requests for Incident Qualification Cards (Red Cards).

By maintaining a verified history of prescribed fire participation, members gain a stronger understanding of their skills, identify areas for continued training, and document progressive responsibility on the fireline. Whether participating in community-based burns, pile burning projects, or larger landscape treatments, the Prescribed Fire Practitioner Experience Database transforms real-world prescribed fire work into organized, accessible, and career-advancing documentation.

The NWCG Task Book Initiation and Fire Training Officer (FTO) Program is a members-only service designed to help Fire Practitioner Members start, manage, and successfully complete NWCG Position Task Books. Through this program, the Healthy Forest Alliance serves as your Training Officer, ensuring task books are properly initiated, documented, and aligned with NWCG standards.

Eligible members can request initiation of NWCG Task Books such as FFT2, FFT1, ENGB, Firing Boss, FAL3, and other operational positions. Our FTO team supports you by verifying prerequisites, tracking progress, reviewing experience entries, and providing guidance on appropriate trainee assignments during prescribed fire projects, wildfire incidents, and trainings.

This program is ideal for practitioners working with PBAs, nonprofits, private landowners, or agencies that do not have an internal training officer. By centralizing oversight and documentation, the program helps ensure credibility, compliance, and a clear pathway for career advancement within the National Wildfire Coordinating Group qualification system.

The Incident Qualification Card (Red Card) Program provides eligible Fire Practitioner Members with a clear, compliant pathway to obtain and maintain NWCG Incident Qualification Cards. Through this program, the Healthy Forest Alliance reviews your training, experience, and currency to verify that you meet NWCG standards for wildland fire and prescribed fire operations.

Members use this program to submit required documentation such as completed NWCG courses, Position Task Books, RT-130, Work Capacity Test results, and logged experience from the Fire Practitioner Database. Our qualifications team verifies records, ensures prerequisites are met, and issues Incident Qualification Cards for approved positions.

This program is especially valuable for practitioners working with PBAs, nonprofits, contractors, or landowners who may not have access to an agency Training Officer or qualification unit. By centralizing qualification review and oversight, the Red Card Program supports safe operations, professional credibility, and consistent compliance with National Wildfire Coordinating Group standards across prescribed fire and wildfire incidents.

The Wildland Fire Experience Database System is a members-only platform designed to help Fire Practitioner Members accurately track and document wildfire response experience across incidents, assignments, and training events. This system provides a centralized, organized record of your wildland fire history, supporting both operational readiness and long-term career development.

Members can log incident names, dates, locations, positions held, trainee assignments, operational periods, and supervising overhead. These records are used to support NWCG Position Task Books, Incident Qualification Card (Red Card) requests, and annual qualification reviews. The system also helps members maintain currency requirements such as recent experience, RT-130 compliance, and Work Capacity Test alignment.

This database is especially valuable for practitioners working across multiple incidents, agencies, PBAs, or nonprofit organizations where experience can otherwise be difficult to track. By maintaining accurate wildfire experience records, members strengthen their qualifications, improve mobility between assignments, and support safe, professional wildland fire operations.
