ICS-400: Advanced ICS for Command and General Staff - Complex Incidents
Instructional Hours: 15.00
This course has a Canvas component which requires internet access.
Course Description: Building on the prerequisite ICS 100, ICS 200, and ICS 300 courses, this ICS 400 course focuses on ICS for Command and General Staff in complex incidents. This advanced ICS 400 course focuses on senior personnel who are expected to perform in a management capacity in an Area Command or Multiagency Coordination System, or as part of an Incident Management Team.
Through activities and a Final Exam, students will be able to demonstrate the duties, responsibilities, and capabilities required to perform in a management capacity for major and complex incidents/events using Area Command.
Although this is an advanced ICS course, it is not intended to develop mastery of area command. The purpose of this course is to expose ICS and other incident management practitioners to the concepts of using area command in major and complex incidents. The course expands upon information covered in the ICS 100, ICS 200, and ICS 300 prerequisite courses.
