Cert Description
In 2003 Madison County CERT instructors offered six trainings to county residents. Over 100 people were trained, and 35 went on to register as volunteers with Madison County Emergency Management Agency. Volunteers were utilized in non-emergency projects such as manning a display and distributing literature at the annual Fire Expo as well as a local holiday event. In 2004 we plan to offer 10 CERT trainings and train over 200 citizens. We have several non-emergency activities planned throughout the year including an exercise to be conducted mid-spring to practice using the skills learned in class. The training is approximately 16 hours and consists of the following 8 modules: Module 1: Disaster Preparedness Module 2: Medical Operations I Module 3: Medical Operations II Module 4: Disaster Psychology Module 5: Terrorism Module 6: Light Search and Rescue Module 7: Fire Suppression Module 8: Team Organization/Volunteer Opportunities We currently have 10 CERT instructors from various disciplines. If you are interested in attending a CERT training and becoming a volunteer or teaching CERT classes for Madison County Emergency Management Agency, please call (740) 852- 4200.
