MULTI-DISCIPLINE DAY SPRING 2022
What a great VVC public safety student training day and high school outreach event.

Over 500 students from 13 area high schools converged on the Regional Public Safety Training Center in Apple Valley California to attend the Spring Multi-Discipline Day.

VVC nursing, Fire, EMS and Criminal Justice students put out fires, attended “injured students”, made “arrests” and traveled around our training center in ambulances, fire trucks and police vehicles responding to field practicles held throughout the day.
