Currently serving Jasper County Fire Rescue in south Carolina along with Charleston County EMS.
I can only speak for South Carolina so hereis ours.The first step if FF1 IFSAC takes approx 2 months meeting a few evenings and Sats. This certification allows exterior firefighting. FF2 is approx 3 months same schedule. SC does have a fire academy that is 12 weeks but they come out with EMT
Metal studs is the best.
Depends on what you are looking for.
Have no clue, that title I have not heard of, sorry.

To go interior firefighting you have to be FF2. I would imagine your system is similar to SC in that it takes approx 4 months based on volunteers work fulltime jobs.
Generally yes, unless you do not plan on driving any apparatus. But generally yes.
My Engine carries the exact same as the medic unit so the sophistication would be the same. And the majority of ALS departments operate the same.
