DHS-Compliant AHIMT Training
Oakhurst,
CA April 15, 2008 – The Incident Management Training
Consortium (IMTC) today announced the availability of the first
complete DHS-standard ICS All Hazard Incident Management Training
curriculum, as well as special application support for agencies
wanting to fund their ICS training programs through the 2008
Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) applications due May
1.
“Until
now 2008 DHS-standard ICS All-Hazard Training courses have
not been available,” says Jon Olney, a principal in IMTC. “In
fact, ICS has been one of the most confusing areas for training
coordinators and emergency managers, because national standards
and clear requirements were only recently finalized.” IMTC
instructors worked with DHS as content experts to develop the
current 2008-2009 ICS training standards.
According
to Olney, the new curriculum represents a significant shift
in training focus, delivering new content, clear standards
and, for the first time, a cohesive path for achieving the
national standard that training coordinators, planners, and
managers can follow.

WHAT
DO TRAINING COORDINATORS MOST FREQUENTLY ASK ABOUT ICS?
What’s
required? What courses? When? In what order or in which
combinations should we handle training to optimize our training
dollars and create the best AHIMT? Who should we use that really
knows the national standard?
Until
now, ICS training has been one of the more confusing areas for
training coordinators and emergency managers because the national
standards and clear requirements had not been developed until recently. IMTC
instructors were an integral part of that solution, working with
DHS to develop the current 2008-2009 ICS training standards.
