Kimberly’s Recommendation:
It is vital to your success in the Homeland Security Industry to showcase that you have worked alongside civilians providing an important role AND that you have taken the extra effort to become certified in the courses important to their industry. The military has its own language of jargon across all branches of the military that we must learn in order to work in joint assignments. It is vital that you take this opportunity to learn the FEMA jargon. Taking the time and effort to become certified through the Emergency Management Institute will set you apart from your competition.

Recently the National Incident Management System – Emergency Management Institute (EMI) replaced its Incident Command System (ICS) curricula with courses that meet the requirements specified in the National Incident Management System (NIMS). EMI developed the new courses collaboratively with the National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG), the United States Fire Administration and the United States Department of Agriculture.
Connecting with your local community - Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) in your city at https://www.citizencorps.gov/cert/
The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Program educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations. Using the training learned in the classroom and during exercises, CERT members can assist others in their neighborhood or workplace following an event when professional responders are not immediately available to help. CERT members also are encouraged to support emergency response agencies by taking a more active role in emergency preparedness projects in their community.
