This is a 4-day resident course
LOCATION Emergency Management Institute (EMI) National Emergency Training Center (NETC) 16825 S. Seton Ave. Emmitsburg, MD 21727
DETAILS This resident course is designed for local disaster recovery teams
consisting of emergency managers, city/county administrators, public
works directors, building inspectors, and community planners. The course
focuses on the roles and responsibilities of each team member, and
provides guidance on developing a local disaster recovery plan. Best
practices in disaster recovery are summarized in a toolkit included in
the course materials. Participants are given the opportunity to develop
an outline of their own recovery plan during the course.
Course Objectives: • Better understand local community responsibilities and challenges associated with disaster recovery. • Discuss "lessons learned" in disaster recovery at the local level. • Develop and implement a pre-disaster recovery plan.
Selection Criteria: Local elected official (mayor, city/county council member), tribal leaders, city/county manager/staff, city/county planner/staff, regional planning commissions, economic development districts, finance director/assessor, emergency manager/staff, public works director/staff, building inspector/staff, floodplain manager/staff, health care administrator or planner, public information officer, housing director or planner/staff, voluntary agency coordinator or unmet needs committee coordinator, business organization representative, administrative director/manager, state recovery staff and partners (so they can be turned into recovery at the local level).
