Emergency Management Certificate 05/10 - 05/31/17

Emergency management provides a structure for anticipating and responding to emergency incidents.  Emergency management involves emergency service agencies as well as participants from government and private sectors.  Emergency management activities are divided into phases before, during, and after emergency events.

Introduction to Emergency Management presents a broad overview of the emergency management system in use at the local, state, and federal levels.  This program reinforces the importance of event pre-planning and exercise as well as an integrated, multi-jurisdictional approach to managing emergencies.  This program will enable the student to formulate the elements of an integrated teamwork system and devise specific actions for improving their own contributions to the emergency management system.  The development and implementation of the National Response Plan (NRP) will also be covered.
