E601 - Management and Supervision of Training
Course Description:
This 36 hour course is designed to enable participants to develop, plan, manage,
and evaluate a training program effectively. Key topics include using an EMI-developed
training management analysis tool to develop a training program, design and
develop courses, and select training sites, arranging logistics, promoting
teamwork during training, minimizing liability, evaluating a training program,
and developing an awareness of the alternatives available to standard classroom
delivery.
This course is the initial activity in the Master Trainer Program. As such,
it provides a surface look at the functions of needs assessment, course design,
course development, course delivery, and course evaluation. It is appropriate
for those training managers whose training responsibility is a collateral responsibility
or who are new to the position.
Selection Criteria:
This course is designed for those who have overall responsibility for developing,
planning, managing, and evaluating training programs. FEMA regional training
managers, State emergency management training officers, and other State-level
organizational training managers are appropriate candidates for this course.
Managers of local training organizations will be accepted provided they demonstrate
that the system they manage is of a complexity commensurate with that of the
State emergency management organization which includes all of the functions
identified above.
Prerequisites:
Applicants must have the responsibility for developing,
planning, managing, and evaluating a training program.
