Welcome to the official website for the California American Fire Sprinkler Association (CAFSA),   and the CAFSA Apprenticeship Training Program for Fire Sprinkler Fitters! 

Whether you're an entry level crafts-person wanting to join the state's fastest growing construction industry trade group,   or a small,  medium, or large fire sprinkler contractor wishing to upgrade the skills and productivity of your field personnel,  CAFSA can assist you in reaching your goals.

CAFSA's contractor managed apprenticeship training program; a five-year regimen of on-the-job, classroom, and correspondence training has been approved by the State of California,  Division of Apprenticeship and Training, and the U.S. Department of Labor,  Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services (OATELS)   

The CAFSA Apprenticeship Training Program is an equal opportunity career path for both men and women.     Contractor participants must meet this state approved program's requirements of financial security,   verification of workers compensation coverage and general liability coverage;   and a demonstrated history of safety and commitment to worker training and development.  

Using training materials developed by the American Fire Sprinkler Association in conjunction with the CAFSA's own Technical Education Committee's twenty-one inter-active CD-Rom Training modules  apprentices can combine their on-the-job training with a state-of-the art combination of media based training and one-on-one supervision by veteran journeymen and supervisorial personnel.
