The Monroeville Public Safety Training Center (MPSTC) is almost finalized and is in operation. A tremendous amount of excavation and work has set the way for the new training grounds. Thanks to all that have been involved up to this point.
The joint effort between the Municipality, the Police Department and the Fire Departments have cleared the way for the building of a Public Safety Training Center in Monroeville. Due to the growing needs for training and education in the Fire, EMS and Police fields, Monroeville decided to take a huge step ahead and personally take care of the needs of its own.
The Monroeville Public Safety Training Center broke ground in September of 2002 and is expected to be a major contributor to public, police, fire, and EMS education for many years to follow.
The training center offers the following:
A one, two and four story burn building/tower
Vehicle rescue pads
Two drafting pits
Confined space training simulation
Paved Emergency Vehicle Driver Training Course
Classrooms / Education facility
Three police shooting ranges
The MPSTC has partnered up with CCAC for EMT Education, WPAHS-Forbes Regional Campus for other EMS and Paramedic Education, FBI for specialized police training, and the Allegheny County Fire Academy for fire education showing that the educational and general growth potential for this facility is constantly increasing.
