Course Rationale Recent after-action reports prepared by the Federal Response Planning Task Force, the National Academy of Public Administration, and the U.S. General Accounting Office indicated a need for training in several response and recovery operations. Additionally, the Emergency Management Institute (EMI) conducted interviews with State and local emergency management directors, operations officers, and training officers in Iowa and Missouri following the floods of 1993 which confirmed the training need for Resource Management (RM) Coordinators and others involved in response and recovery operations. Resource management is handled differently in every jurisdiction, and the roles and responsibilities of the RM Coordinator are not clearly defined. Thus, a standardized approach to resource management is nonexistent. This curriculum reflects an amalgam of course material and recourses, emphasizing a systemic approach to recourse management. This curriculum was developed based on the findings of a front-end analysis and design meeting. The training approach used in this curriculum emphasizes performance-based training results. The course content focuses on the information RM Coordinators need to know to make informed decisions about resource management. The training exercises are designed to involve the learner in practical activities that he or she can readily transfer to the job.
Course Goal The goal of the resource management curriculum is to provide RM Coordinators with the knowledge and skills they need to perform resource management functions within the overall framework of the emergency operations center (EOC). The curriculum was designed using a performance-based approach which emphasizes learning activities that are easily transferable to the job. Course Objectives At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to do the following:
