NIMS 700

By law, all government employees are designated Disaster Service Workers. Effective disaster preparedness requires periodic trainings and refresher updates. As recent events have shown, government organizations cannot be too prepared to respond to emerging threats and incidents. This updated Disaster Service Worker training and introduction to NIMS is meant to better prepare employees to respond to emergencies of all types.
