In this 2-day course, students will practice use of the Incident Command System (ICS) in coordination with other public safety responders.
As a follow-up to ICS-100 and ICS-200 training, this course will present scenarios requiring responders to structure their EMS resources within the guidance of National Incident Management System ICS as appropriate to the needs of the different incident types.
Through simulation and role-playing, students will demonstrate the implementation of EMS components in an ICS at medium- or large-sized incidents.
