Training, On Line
New FEMA Training Course Essential: ESF #2 Communications An apparently new FEMA on-line course covers the Emergency Support Function (ESF) #2 "Communications" of the National Response Framework (NRF). It is essential that all amateur EmComm operators understand all ESFs, but particularly ESF #2. All ESFs are central to the operations of any EOC.See http://training.fema.gov/EMIWeb/IS/IS802.asp
The NRF presents the guiding principles that enable all response partners to prepare for and provide a unified national response to disasters and emergencies. It establishes a comprehensive, national, all-hazards approach to domestic incident response. The Framework defines the principles, roles, and structures that organize how we respond as a nation. It builds upon the National Incident Management System (NIMS) http://www.fema.gov/emergency/nims/index.shtm, which provides a consistent template for managing incidents. Information on the National Response Framework including Documents, Annexes.
After you complete this course, please send me a copy of your certificate to put in your group file.
