Course ID
Provides an overview of special operations in emergency management (EM). The emergency management field is ever-changing and requires integration of operations that traditionally have not been considered core EM functions. These functions include integration with the intelligence community, joint information centers, pre-planned special events, critical infrastructure protection, and inter- and intra-state mutual aid. This course explores these and other critical special operations that EM communities undertake.
