NYU-Poly and FDNY Research Project

Dear Firefighter,

Polytechnic Institute of New York University (NYU-Poly) in conjunction with the FDNY, is conducting a study on the effectiveness of various fire service training methodologies. This study is funded by the Department of Homeland Security’s Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program. We are seeking 200 volunteers to participate in a study that will involve one day of training and an online follow up component. The training study will be conducted at the FDNY Fire Academy (Randall’s Island) during the period March 19 – 28, 2012. While participation is completely voluntary, NYU-Poly will compensate each participant in the amount of $200. Members interested in participating in this study should sign-up using the button provided below. For more information, please contact Mr. Prabodh Panindre at ppanindr@poly.edu or 718-260-3927.
