Course Details:
Description:
This course provides a framework for community leaders to accelerate economic recovery through the application of community lifelines, essential crisis leadership skills, decision theory, whole community engagement, and resilience strategies. Participants will explore recent and relevant case studies and their economic impact, gain an understanding of how to stabilize lifelines, develop recovery outcomes, and apply the concepts and theory through a practical exercise. Participants will choose one of three scenarios: cyber incident, hurricane, or wildland fire to further localize the training. The last lesson in this course will retrospectively examine the case studies and the practical exercise to facilitate discussion and devise strategies to better prepare the community through mitigation, recovery, and community resilience.
Delivery: 6 hour live course
Certificate: FEMA Certificate issued for successful completion of the course
