FEMA Offering Emergency Management Courses
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) offers a host of independent study courses in crisis operations. “FEMA,” says Government Security News, “anticipates that its Emergency Management Institute, which educates first responders, will hear from more than two million individuals each year who are interested in the Institute’s independent study courses.”
FEMA’s courses include such areas as operational planning, public disaster communications and hazard mitigation. “All are offered free-of-charge to those who qualify for enrollment,” says a FEMA website.
