PD-110
Emergency Management and Disaster Coordination
All communities are vulnerable to a variety of hazards. Emergency management provides a structure for anticipating and dealing with emergency incidents. Emergency management involves participants at all governmental levels and in the private sector. Activities are geared according to phases before, during, and after emergency events. The effectiveness of emergency management rests on a network of relationships among partners in the system. This course examines specific parts of the emergency manager's job within the four phases of emergency management: mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery.
The goal of this course is to introduce you to the fundamentals of emergency management as an integrated system, surveying how the resources and capabilities of all functions at all levels can be networked together in all phases for all hazards including coordinating plans of the various components of the emergency management system, fire and police, emergency medical services, public works, volunteers, and other groups contributing to the community's management of emergencies.
