EOC OPERATIONS COURSE

Vermont Emergency Management will be offering the newly developed EOC Operations Course program in several locations throughout Vermont this fall. All sessions are from 6-9pm.  
 
EOC courses have been scheduled for:

• Vergennes Sept. 22nd, at the Vergennes Fire Dept.
• Alburg Sept. 28th at the Alburg Fire Dept.
• S. Burlington, October 5th, at the S. Burlington Public Works Dept. on 104 Landfill Rd. 

This course examines the role, design, and functions of Emergency Operations Centers (EOC) and their relationships as components of a multi-agency coordination system. Additional topics include staffing and organization, information, systems, communications and equipment needs at the EOC, activating and deactivating the EOC, EOC operations, and EOC testing, training and exercising.  It uses activities and case studies about EOCs at the local, State and Federal levels of government. This course reflects elements of the FEMA G775 EOC Management and Operations Program.
 
Municipal Emergency Management Directors and their associates from Fire, Rescue, Law Enforcement, Select boards, and elsewhere are invited to attend and expand their knowledge of emergency management.

Dinner will be provided. To register, please contact Vermont Emergency Management at 1-800-3
