The Emergency Management Institute (EMI) replaced
its Incident Command System (ICS) curricula with courses that meet
the requirements specified in the National Incident Management System
(NIMS). EMI developed the new courses collaboratively with the National
Wildfire Coordinating Group, the United States Fire Administration,
and the United States Department of Agriculture.
Effective January 1, 2006, EMI will discontinue
support for:
• G190 ICS Law Enforcement
• G192 ICS for Public Works
• G195 Intermediate ICS
• G196 Advanced ICS
• G305.7 Overview of ICS
• IS 195 Basic ICS
Below are the new NIMS-compliant courses following
NIMS guidelines:
• IS 100 (ICS 100) is available as an online
or classroom-delivered course. This course is currently available
in Law Enforcement and Public Works specific versions. Other discipline-specific
versions become available later.
• IS 200 (ICS 200) is available as an online
or classroom-delivered course. Discipline-specific courses will
be added later.
NOTE: ICS 100 and 200 are located at http://www.training.fema.gov/emiweb/IS/crslist.asp
• G300 (ICS 300) is available as a non-resident
course.
• G400 (ICS 400) is available as a non-resident
course.
• G194 ICS for Public Officials is currently
being revised to be NIMS compliant.
