Training Opportunities. COOP training change from Independent Study to Classroom Only.

In an effort to improve Continuity of Operations (COOP) training, FEMA NCP has decided to change the delivery method from Independent Study (IS) to classroom only for the following courses. Student and Instructor evaluations have highlighted the lack of peer interaction and the lack of contribution to the larger body of knowledge through shared experiences with IS courses.

Effective 1 October 2016 – The following Independent Study (IS) courses will no longer be available online:

 

IS 524 – Continuity Planner’s Workshop

IS 526 – Mission Essential Functions (MEF) Workshop

IS 545 – Reconstitution Planning Workshop

IS 548 – Continuity Program Manager’s Course

IS 550 – Continuity Exercise Design Course

IS 551 – Devolution Planning Workshop

The courses listed above will be conducted in a classroom setting only.

In the interest of making classroom courses more available, we are lowering the minimum number of students for local delivery from 15 to 8.
