The Basic Emergency Management course is an online individual training course. It is structured to provide the participant with a broad-base of information to carry out planning and operations during emergencies. Planning – process theory is introduced and operating procedures are applied to a variety of emergency management scenarios. The management, command, control, and coordination functions necessary to deal with emergencies are then examined using case studies at the municipal and regional levels. The course is a self-paced interactive study package, and students are required to complete a final exam online before being able to print your certificate. This is an entry level course and is considered a prerequisite for more advanced emergency management training offered by NBEMO, such as the Emergency Operation Centre course or the Emergency Public Information course.

In order to register for the self-study course, individuals must email [email protected] and clearly state how they are an Emergency Management partner what organisation they belong to.
