1. Will classes (or the course) be cancelled?

No. All prospective students should plan for distance learning via Zoom. This means you will need to ensure you have access to a device with video camera and microphone capabilities. Most laptops, tablets, and phones can easily accomplish this. You will be provided with detailed instructions once you have registered for the course and once the course begins.

2. I have a scheduling conflict and must miss a class.  Is that okay?

Yes. We allow for one absence for the week night lectures. However, you may be required to do a make up assignment or attend that lecture at one of our other course locations within one year to graduate.  We do not allow for any weekend class absences. Please contact us at JAllen@EmergencyMngr.com to resolve any planned conflicts.

Yes.  When you submit your registration form and payment information, you will receive an electronic invoice shortly thereafter.  If you do not receive that invoice, please check your trash or spam folders.  With your invoice, you will also receive our W9 form and business certificate.  These documents are usually required when you submit an invoice to your agency for processing.
