Course Description:

The goal of L0452, Advanced II: Assessment of Teams in Professional Emergency Management, is to provide EM professionals with critical skills that are needed to be able to apply personal management styles in the context of EM. Advanced II will provide participants with the essential skills needed to lead EM programs at the mid-manager’s level and will be essential to building the foundation for collaboration by bringing EM professionals together to share their experiences and establish a network. Advanced II will enable participants to gain knowledge necessary for understanding and developing themselves as mid-level managers, develop critical thinking and decision-making skills, develop personal influence and communication skills, work through resiliency, and motivate and manage others. In addition, Advanced II will provide an opportunity to explore the importance of ethics, values, and accountability. Sharing best practices, lessons learned, tools, and documentation to have a firm understanding of Federal, State, and local EM programs, as well as how those programs can be effectively leveraged to support State and local needs and requirements.
