Course Description:

When 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.
You 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.
The 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.

POC: TEMA.Training@tn.gov

Course Description
This course is for emergency managers, public works officials, levee district representatives, and others responsible for planning, preparing, and managing the response to a flood. Using a combination of lectures, discussions, activities, and exercises, the course will take participants through the complete process from well before the flood to clean-up afterwards. Officials from every community at risk of flooding should take this training.While this training emphasizes how to conduct a flood fight, it provides information to help communities decide if a flood fight is possible and worth the effort and cost. Diagrams with materials lists and equipment and labor requirements to construct various types of temporary flood protection can be used to help determine if there is enough time and resources to protect the community. If the whole community cannot be protected, then officials must decide where to concentrate their efforts to protect some areas and/or evacuate and relocate what they can. If a flood fight is undertaken, it should be done the right way or the effort will be wasted.
Course Objectives

Summarize the basic concepts related to riverine flooding.
Analyze flood threats for a given scenario.
Determine how to coordinate with multiple agencies, groups, and organizations to plan for riverine flooding.
Explain the advantages and disadvantages of expedient flood works.

Course Description
This five-day course serves as a basic introduction to the activities and processes of a USFA Type 3 AHIMT. The ideal number of participants is between 24 (divided into three teams of eight) and 40 (divided into four teams of 10 or five teams of eight). USFA recommends a minimum of two instructors per delivery and a minimum of one mentor per team of eight to 10 to facilitate the delivery.
Course Purpose and Goal
This course meets the needs of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and the National Response Framework (NRF). The USFA Type 3 AHIMT course focuses on the importance of developing and operating as a functional USFA Type 3 AHIMT. This course will assist individual responders to perform as viable team members by:
• Demonstrating the goals of NIMS and NRF.
• Emphasizing the nature and purpose of a USFA Type 3 AHIMT so that others in the community and emergency services are more willing and able to assist within various components of their local USFA Type 3 AHIMT.
• Demonstrating the critical role that leadership and teamwork skills play in the success of a USFA Type 3 AHIMT.
• Providing a basic framework for building and maintaining critical interpersonal communications and working together as a team member of a USFA Type 3 AHIMT.
• Offering practical experience of on-scene operations through extensive exercises and simulations, as well as through post-course refresher training, by providing students with the opportunity to perform as members of a USFA Type 3 AHIMT during a mock incident management situation.
