This course will assist individual responders to perform as viable team members by learning the basic foundational knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to perform in an ICS position on a All-Hazards Incident Management Team (AHIMT) through:
– Emphasizing the nature and purpose of a AHIMT so that others in the community and emergency services are more willing and able to assist or participate in their local AHIMT
– Demonstrating the critical role that leadership and teamwork skills play in the success of a AHIMT
– Providing a basic framework for building and maintaining critical interpersonal communications and working together as a team member of a AHIMT
– Operationalizing the components of the NIMS and NRF for use in the field
– Offering practical experience of on-scene operations through extensive exercises and simulations that provide multiple opportunities to perform as members of a AHIMT during simulated incidents
