As the Fall 2022 semester comes to an end, many students will wrap up their time with College of Western Idaho (CWI) and begin a new chapter in life. Before the students embark on their new careers, CWI will honor graduates from the College’s Fire Service Technology and Practical Nursing (PN) programs with ceremonies planned for next week.

CWI’s Fire Service Technology program will see 17 graduates walk across the stage at the Nampa Civic Center Wednesday, Dec. 14. Three students have already begun working or have job offers with local Treasure Valley fire departments and agencies.

The ceremony will also have Caldwell Fire Department Chief, Richard Frawley, as the keynote speaker.
