No, why should they be?  They are recognised by the British Fire Service is that not good enough?

PS are any American training organisations recognised by the Fire Service College or the IFE, or the ODPM? If so why?

PS Some training companies list their training programs as "IFSAC Accredited". There is no such thing as "IFSAC Accredited Training" as IFSAC does not accredit training programs. IFSAC only accredits the certification processes of our member entities.

So what accreditation would they get anyway?
