The course content includes Emergency Management Planning doctrine and steps to take to accomplish writing plans and using them to deal with special events\, which are common challenges for all jurisdictions. \nThe content also derives from the Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 101\, Developing and Maintaining State\, Territorial\, Tribal and Local Government Emergency Plans\, and its six-step planning process and inclusive whole community philosophy. Likewise\, doctrine from the Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 201\, Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA)\, is included in the course. Special event planning is then explained in the course\, and table group activities to analyze plans for special events are conducted. \nObjectives: \n\nExplain the relationships among preparedness\, THIRA\, and emergency operations planning.\nIdentify the steps in the emergency planning process and their expected outcomes.\nDescribe the purpose and components of an Emergency Operations Plan.\nApply the emergency planning principles and process in evaluating an Emergency Operations Plan.\n\nPrerequisites: \nNone
