E910 Earthquake:
Preparedness and Response
This Integrated Emergency Management Course, E910
Earthquake Preparedness and Response is another in the curriculum
and addresses preparedness and response in emergency situations
based on an earthquake. This exercise-based course is conducted
for two types of audiences. The participants in the "generic" audience
represent various communities from throughout the country. The "specific"
audience is made up of participants all from one community. The
places public officials and other key community leaders in a disaster
simulation. The course methodologies of classroom instruction, planning
sessions, and exercises, allow for structured decision making in
a learning, yet realistic, environment. A key outcome of this is
that additional planning needs are identified, providing the opportunity
to enhance overall preparedness. The exercise scenario for the Earthquake:
Preparedness and Response focuses on response to an earthquake.
Also, additional planning needs to prepare for an earthquake response
are identified.
Except for 's reserved for specific communities,
participants are recruited via our National
Open Enrollment System.
Continuing Education Units (CEU's) are available
for this course (2.5).
NOTE: Participants are encouraged to enroll
in both the Earthquake: Preparedness and Response and the Earthquake:
Recovery and Mitigation, in consecutive, back to back, offerings.
