As you've heard me discuss on the podcast now and then I am not "anti-government" in any respect. I don't like certain overreaches, like most Americans, but I also see value in some of the things our nation's citizenry does together, such as providing a strong military, good roads, and taking care of those who truly can't help themselves. So with that said, there are some things provided by the government that I think are a net positive and one of those aspects is the Emergency Management Training offered by FEMA as shown above. Here are some of the focus areas they offer courses in:
- Incident Management
- Operational Planning
- Disaster Logistics
- Emergency Communications
- Service to Disaster Victims
- Continuity Programs
- Public Disaster Communications
- Integrated Preparedness
- Hazard Mitigation
And you can get college credit for completed courses here: http://em-study.com/emsfema/
Some of what FEMA offers does not appeal to my survival/preparedness/disaster readiness sensibilities, but a number of their courses seem like they would cover extremely useful information. Check it out to see if anything they've made available looks interesting to you.
