NIMS IS-700 Training
December 17, 2005
NCAC members: We have been given an opportunity to provide training
required by the Department of Homeland Security. David has arranged for an
instructor from George Washington University. The class will be December 17
(yes, our meeting date) from 9 -1 in Alexandria. NCAC will have lunch and
meet after class.
We are currently limited to the large classroom where we had our fall NCAC
Institute. There is a possibility we could move to the auditorium if there
is enough demand. Jim will invite the REACT reps who were planning to attend
our meeting to participate in the training before the meeting.
We have less than a month until the day of class, but with the current
demand for this class--even with the holidays on the horizon--I'm sure it
will fill up.
Please, pass the word to local groups and encourage everyone to pre-register
with an email address. Walk-ins may be turned away.
WHAT: FREE training required for volunteers by DHS: NIMS IS-700,
Instruction by faculty from George Washington University-READI; students
will be prepared for the online exam
WHEN: December 17 from 9 AM to 1 PM
