PGI Fireworks
Display Operator Course
Every year we sponsor a PGI Display Operator Certification class.
What is PGI Fireworks Training?
Our PGI class is designed to provide current or aspiring fireworks professionals, as well as fire prevention and police professionals, basic fireworks display knowledge. It assumes no previous display fireworks knowledge or experience.
The PGI course includes:
- classroom lectures
- video presentations
- live fire demonstrations
- supervised hands-on live fireworks training
- written final exam
The successful completion of this course along with adequate verifiable fireworks display experience qualifies one to apply for the PGI Display Operator Certification. Students are invited to help set up the evening demo display, and this counts towards the experience requirement for PGI certification.
This PGI Fireworks class may be taken by anyone 18 years of age or older with no criminal record.
The class cost of $99 per individual includes:
- The latest 300-page PGI Display Fireworks
- Operator Certification Study Guide
- Live pyrotechnic devices for the supervised hands-on training portion of the class
- Written examination
- Breakfast and Lunch
Registration opens on January 11th. Just check back on this page for the registration form. A non-refundable registration fee of $25 will be charged when the form is submitted.
