Dear NFA Graduate or Employee Supervisor,

Recently, you – or an employee under your supervision – completed the National Fire Academy (NFA) course [insert course name and code] [insert course offering date range].

To help guide the NFA in the continuous improvement of its training programs, we would like to ask you to complete a Long Term Evaluation (LTE) of this course. Your feedback is critical for the Academy to determine what training elements have been transferred to the job and ultimately are making a difference in helping to reduce the loss of life from fire-related incidents in local communities.

You may complete the LTE on the U.S. Fire Administration’s Web site. If evaluating the course as a Student, we will ask you questions about how you have used the training since returning to your department. If evaluating the course as the Supervisor of the student who completed the course, we will ask you to evaluate the benefits of the training to your department and community.

To complete the evaluation, please visit the following page on our Web site: [insert specific URL]
