Resource Management
Job Titles
As part of our nation's efforts to strengthen catastrophic response capabilities in line with the National Incident Management System (NIMS), FEMA's National Integration Center (NIC) Incident Management Systems Division has released initial minimum criteria for personnel to be deployed using a national credentialing system. For each job title, working groups identified "requisite" and "recommended" baseline criteria for education, training, experience, physical/medical fitness, certification, and licensing. These criteria are intended to complement and support existing credentialing systems. Where national standards do not exist under "requisite" criteria, "recommended" criteria are listed for current and/or future consideration.
The following job titles have been developed by the working groups:
- Animal Emergency Response Job Titles
- Public Works (PW) Job Titles (PDF 81KB, TXT 32KB)
- Search and Rescue (SAR) Job Titles (PDF 396KB, TXT 159KB)
- Medical and Public Health Credentialing
