Individuals who meet the requirements established by JLMC will be certified by JLMC for a 2 year period and listed on a Roster of Certified Assessors maintained by OSFM and JLMC.

b) The JLMC is composed of 2 representatives from the Illinois Fire Chiefs Association and 2 representatives from the Associated Fire Fighters of Illinois. Questions, comments and requests for an application to submit for certification can be obtained by contacting JLMC using the following contact information:

c) This Part is applicable to all full-time municipal fire departments (with a population less than 1,000,000) subject to a collective bargaining agreement and all full-time fire departments operated by fire protection districts. Subject to any collective bargaining agreement, fire departments may use persons employed or appointed by the jurisdiction administering the examination. However, fire departments are encouraged to utilize certified assessors if an assessment center is part of the promotion process.
