Homeland Security Training: Evacuation Planning Strategies & Solutions

CAPCOG will host an emergency management course that will teach local government personnel how to use current tools and technologies to institute best practices and strategies to plan for and execute an emergency evacuation. This 8-hour course discusses the hazard conditions for which an emergency evacuation could be an appropriate protective action and inform participants on resources and methods to help them better prepare for an emergency evacuation. This course will allow participants to explore data, modelling tools, and simulations that assist with the implementation of an emergency evacuation.

The course is designed to provide emergency managers, first responders, transportation professionals, security and safety professionals, and government administrators.
