As illustrated by this training unit, fire service training is organized separately by each State in Germany (Sachsen being Saxony).

Promotion - for both paid professional and unpaid volunteer personnel - is through several grades, each of which requires additional training, testing, examinations and a defined number of years of experience.

The number of grades varies from one fire service to another, but in general there are around twelve to eighteen ranks in a full time fire brigade and between five and eight in a volunteer organization.
