 Bu araştırma, Türkiyedeki Sivil Savunma ve İtfaiyecilik önlisans programı müfredatlarında yer alan beden eğitimispor eğitimi derslerini, içeriğini ve uygulamalarını değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında 42 önlisans programının 2022-2023 yılları arasındaki Bologna ders paketleri doküman analizi yöntemi kullanılarak detaylı bir şekilde incelenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre 14,3ünde 6 program beden eğitimi dersinin yer almadığı, 40,5inde 17 program ise mesleki fiziksel uygunluğa yönelik ders içeriği bulunmadığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, dersi veren öğretim elemanlarının 52,3ü beden eğitimi ve spor alanı mezuniyetine sahip değildir. Bulgular, itfaiyecilik mesleğinde yüksek fiziksel uygunluk gerekliliği göz önüne alındığında önemli sorunları ortaya koymaktadır. Araştırma, beden eğitimi dersi içeriğindeki eksikliklerin, itfaiyecilik mesleğinin gereksinimlerini karşılayacak şekilde güncellenerek zorunlu hale getirilmesi gerektiğini vurgulamaktadır. Araştırmanın sonuçları, sivil savunma ve itfaiyecilik programlarının, nitelikli personel yetiştirmek adına fiziksel uygunluk temelli bir eğitime odaklanması gerektiğini açıkça ortaya koymaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Mesleki Fiziksel Uygunluk dersi adı altında özel bir müfredatın benimsenmesi önerilmekte ve bu dersin, itfaiyecilik mesleğinin temel becerilerine odaklanarak yüksek fiziksel kapasite ve uygunluğa ulaşma hedeflerini içermesi gerektiği vurgulanmaktadır. Bu önerilerin dikkate alınması, itfaiyecilik mesleğinde güçlü ve uygun bir eğitim altyapısının oluşturulmasına katkı sağlayabilir.
