Additional Trainings
Continuity of Operations (COOP)
This two-day, management-level training course is designed to provide students with an interactive and comprehensive understanding of how a COOP program is developed, maintained, and exercised. The curriculum is designed to encourage collaborative discussion, problem solving, and real-world experiences. There are 11 substantive modules, each of which focuses upon a specific aspect of COOP, including: essential functions, human capital management, succession management, vital records and equipment, communications, alternate facilities, reconstitution, devolution, and training and exercise. The course can be specifically tailored to the unique needs and requirements of the host agency or jurisdiction.
ICS and NIMS Courses
CHHS offers the following FEMA ICS and NIMS training in-person for organizations that want a live instructor who can bring real-world context to the material. Each of these can be taught on their own or paired together, based on organizational priorities. At the end of each training session, CHHS instructors will work with participants to create FEMA student IDs, login, and complete the online assessment to receive FEMA credit.
