Tactical Emergency Management

Overview

Do you operate at a tactical level? If the answer is yes, this is your opportunity to delve into our decades of experience, as we offer you a definitive view on working as a Tactical Decision Maker and Emergency Responder.

This course is designed to equip Tactical Emergency Managers with the knowledge, skills and tools needed to apply Integrated Emergency Management processes within their own organisation, as well as in multi-responder environments.
