SUMMARY:MGT-312: Senior Officials Workshop for All-Hazards Preparedness
DESCRIPTION:Registration: https://teex.org/class/MGT312/ \nPOC: esti@teex.tamu.edu or call (866) 878-8900 \nCourse Description: \nThis course provides a forum to discuss strategic and executive-level issues related to all-hazard disaster preparedness\, to share proven strategies and best practices\, and to enhance coordination among officials responsible for emergency response and recovery from a disaster. This workshop integrates a multimedia scenario and vignettes that highlight key issues and facilitates executive-level discussion of the United States’ National Strategy for Homeland Security. Additionally\, the forum provides an opportunity to apply lessons learned from past local and national all-hazards disasters. \nThis course includes seven distinct modules incorporating lecture\, discussion\, and a practical exercise. Each module focuses on a key component of disaster preparedness\, such as Culture of Preparedness\, Integrated Partnerships\, Organizing for Success\, Crisis Communications\, etc. Within the various modules are opportunities for group interaction and discussion. The final module of the course is designed to provide the participants the opportunity to develop an action plan or to-do list for follow-up consideration and action. \nThe practical exercise consists of an expanding incident\, designed specifically to address the local community’s needs or concerns. Participants are provided information and periodic updates\, after which they are given a list of questions to consider and discuss. Through these updates\, the incident builds upon itself until it reaches a mass casualty/catastrophic level\, thereby overwhelming the normal capabilities of the local jurisdiction and challenging the participants to consider their local policies\, resources\, and limitations. \nThis workshop provides a unique opportunity for local or regional executives to share strategies and coordinate plans for emergency preparedness and response. This workshop is an effective process for discussing executive-level issues with leaders from the agencies involved in all levels of the emergency management structure.

SUMMARY:PER-213: Wide Area Search
DESCRIPTION:Registration: https://teex.org/class/PER213/ \nPOC: esti@teex.tamu.edu or call (866) 878-8900 \nCourse Description: \n\nWhen disaster strikes\, it can be a challenge to effectively mobilize\, organize\, and deploy resources needed to perform wide area searches. This course is an excellent training opportunity for any jurisdiction or agency that may face such an emergency. The course content applies to a vast number of critical situations\, including natural disasters or terrorist incidents. \nYou will be instructed in practical search methods and skills so you can perform systematic searches over a large affected area. The training will include challenging exercises that mirror real life scenarios. The three-day long event will conclude with an in-depth exercise that requires participants to utilize the skills gained during the course by working through an incident from start to finish in a single operational period. \nThe trainers delivering the course are knowledgeable—they are experienced emergency responders who have actively utilized wide area search techniques during some of the nation’s largest and most challenging operations\, such as Hurricanes Katrina\, Ike\, Gustav\, and Rita; the Space Shuttle Columbia recovery operation; and many other incidents that required the same comprehensive strategies.
