Calgary Fire Department Fire Training Academy and Multi-Agency Training Centre

The Calgary Fire Department trains its members at the Fire Training Academy (FTA) and Multi-Agency Training (MAT) Centre, located near Elliston Park in Southeast Calgary.

The site contains two major buildings, at 5727 and 5705 23 Ave., SE, as well as a number of other facilities designed to provide safe, controlled training opportunities for firefighters, technical rescue teams, and other emergency services agencies.
