AI Summary
This bill amends the Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act of 1974 to require the Administrator of the National Fire Academy (which is part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency or FEMA) to submit an annual report to Congress by November 30th each year, detailing the Academy's courses and programs from the previous fiscal year. The report must include specific information such as the number and identification of fire departments whose personnel attended courses, the number of career and volunteer firefighters who participated, the total number of courses offered and cancelled, and the amount of funds awarded to state and local fire service training programs and to students attending Academy courses. This reporting requirement aims to provide Congress with comprehensive, detailed insights into the National Fire Academy's training activities and financial allocations, enhancing transparency and oversight of the Academy's operations and impact on fire service training nationwide.
