The course will take place in Emmitsburg, Maryland from January 14-17, 2013. From the course description: "Situational Awareness and Common Operating Picture (SA and COP) support the Communications and Information Management component of the National Incident Management System (NIMS). Individuals and organizations at all levels of response have a responsibility to both contribute to and use reliable information as a part of the incident response efforts. Despite the importance of maintaining SA and COP for all types of incidents, there are few resources available for individuals and teams to improve their capabilities in this arena. This advanced course is designed to build the skills, knowledge, and capabilities of individuals, teams, and organizations involved in emergency preparedness, response and recovery."
