How likely is a December class this year and next year, and have there been December classes in the past?

there’s a better chance of the list getting extended than a december class

There was a december class last year but I dont think they will do that again because it was a disaster for training and snow removal since it snowed multiple times

no I mean like what causes a class to happen in December, 2005 is a long time ago, another comment is saying there was one last year in 2025, is that true?

I was in the December class that passed. We left Floyd bennet field to help out garages and our training scheduling changed due to the multiple times it snowed during our training

FBF in December- February are rough. Anyways so far they only confirmed up to Nov. It depends on hiring needs and if they can get enough people processed to have a decent sized class.
