SUMMARY:Intermediate Emergency Operations Center Management
DESCRIPTION:This intermediate level builds upon Introduction to  EOC Management Course\, where participants are taken through the essentials of managing an Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) in a time of crisis.  Where possible\, a crisis communications module (Public Information Officer) is introduced to add the current challenges presented by traditional and citizen (social) media to the course.
