SUMMARY:L0103 Planning Emergency Operations
DESCRIPTION:This course is designed to give basic concepts and planning steps to those new to the field of emergency management so that they may apply planning discipline and skills to challenges in their jobs. The course content includes Emergency Management Planning doctrine and steps to take to accomplish writing plans and using them to deal with special events\, which are common challenges for all jurisdictions. \nThe content also derives from the Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 101\, Developing and Maintaining State\, Territorial\, Tribal and Local Government Emergency Plans\, and its six-step planning process and inclusive whole community philosophy. Likewise\, doctrine from the Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 201\, Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA)\, is included in the course. Special event planning is then explained in the course\, and table group activities to analyze plans for special events are conducted. \nCourse objectives: \n\nExplain the relationships among preparedness\, THIRA\, and emergency operations planning.\nIdentify the steps in the emergency planning process and their expected outcomes.\nDescribe the purpose and components of an Emergency Operations Plan.\nApply the emergency planning principles and process in evaluating an Emergency Operations Plan.\n\nPrerequisites: \nIf a participant is taking this course as part of the Academy\, then he or she should take E/L0101\, Foundations of Emergency Management\, first. If a participant is taking this course on its own for its planning information and not in fulfillment of the Academy requirements\, there are no prerequisites. \nTarget audience: \nThis course is intended for newly appointed emergency managers from Federal\, state\, local\, tribal\, and territorial emergency management agencies\, and prospective professionals transferring from another discipline to emergency management. \nPriority seating will be given to students completing the National Emergency Management Basic Academy. Student selections will be conducted on June 12\, 2018. \nCourse manager: \nJustin Fordice\nState Training Officer\nWA Emergency Management Division\nPhone: 253-512-7056\nEmail: justin.fordice@mil.wa.gov

SUMMARY:L0950 NIMS ICS All-Hazards Incident Commander
DESCRIPTION:Course Description\nThis course provides local- and state-level emergency responders with a robust understanding of the duties\, responsibilities\, and capabilities of an effective Incident Commander (IC) on an All-Hazards Incident Management Team (AHIMT). These responsibilities fall into two categories: 1) responding to the incident and command needs of the incident\, and 2) effectively fulfilling the position responsibilities of an IC on an All-Hazards ICS IMT. Exercises\, simulations\, discussions\, and a final exam enable participants to process and apply their new knowledge. \nCourse Objectives\nDemonstrate\, through exercises and a final exam\, an understanding of the duties\, responsibilities\, and capabilities of an effective Incident Commander. \nTarget Audience\nNIMS ICS All-Hazards training should be completed by personnel who are regularly assigned to Functional\, Support\, or Unit Leader positions on Type 3 or 4 AHIMTs\, or by those persons who desire to seek credentials/certification in those positions. \nPrerequisites\n• IS-100.b Introduction to the Incident Command System (ICS)\n• IS-200.b ICS for Single Resources and Initial Action Incidents\n• IS-700.a National Incident Management System\n• IS-800.b National Response Framework\, An Introduction\n• ICS-300 Intermediate ICS for Expanding Incidents\n• ICS-400 Advanced ICS for Command and General Staff \nApply at: https://mil.wa.gov/form/wa-emd-state-course-application \nBe prepared to provide a completed FEMA Application Form 119 and copies of your prerequisite course completion certificates\, at a later date. \nIMPORTANT MESSAGE: Applications for this course are reviewed 4-6 weeks prior to the course date.
