From the meeting
At the October 13, 2026 meeting, fire chiefs and EMS leaders urged Olympic College to set a firm launch date for its state-approved paramedic program. Christian Wildes of Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue, Chief LaGrandeur of North Kitsap Fire and Rescue, and Battalion Fire Chief Becker all supported moving the program forward. They linked the program to local training, staffing, and response readiness across Kitsap, Mason, and the greater Olympic Peninsula.
The board received the comments; no launch date was set.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will Olympic College issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Olympic College's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Olympic College before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
Where can I find more education & training government opportunities in Washington?
Civic IQ monitors board meetings, agendas, budgets, and capital plans from 100,000+ state and local agencies and surfaces education & training pre-RFPs in Washington as soon as they appear — months before they reach bid portals.
