16 Hour Incident Command Training

Overview:
This course is a basic Incident Command training
program for all-hazards approaches particularly
geared toward industrial and municipal situations.
The scope of this course is limited to those
standards, laws, and regulations that apply
to the brigade or department member regarding
command at various types of incidents and serves
to establish the foundation necessary for additional
levels of training.
Many NFPA Standards are referenced in this course, however, the functions that
the Incident Commander (IC) will be expected to perform in the workplace are
site-specific and will vary from facility to facility and from company to company.
Purpose:
This course is designed to bring personnel

able to understand the roles, duties and
functions of Incident Command and Incident
Management Systems. Upon successful
completion of this course the student will

Command / Incident Management Systems training.

This course consists of lectures, classroom
demonstrations, presentations, and table-top
exercise simulations.
