Emergency Management Threats and Hazards - Water
Emergency Management Threat and Hazards: Water is a 50-hour course, spread out over 15 weeks. It bridges the work of emergency management practitioners at any level, with that of academic researchers, specifically for water-related incidents. Practitioners who typically follow a disaster phase cycle of preparedness/protection/prevention, response, recovery, and mitigation will find this course to have the distinct actions and missions to reduce or eliminate adverse impacts from both threats and hazards.
The course is based on the book of the same name, and examines many of the distinct differences and variances within the specific scope of water-related incidents, crises, emergencies, and disasters. The course will cover examples and practical strategies for protection/prevention, response, recovery, and mitigation against adverse impacts to people, property, and organizations. This course will help Emergency Managers develop plans, organize staff, identify equipment and additional training needed, and design exercises to support your teams.
This 100% virtual course is designed for adult learners of different types, and can be completed self-paced, via attendance at a weekly session, or both.
