EPT4978 — All-Haz Ops Section Chief
This course is designed to provide local and state-level emergency responders with an understanding of the duties, responsibilities, and capabilities of an effective Operations Section Chief (OSC) on an All-Hazards Incident Management Team (AHIMT). These responsibilities fall into two categories: 1) responding to the incident and the command needs of the incident; and 2) effectively fulfilling the position responsibilities of an OSC on an All-Hazards ICS Incident Management Team. Exercises, simulations, discussions, and a final exam enable students to process and apply new knowledge. Check with the Division of Emergency Management for any recommended prerequisites.
