National Review of the Five-Year NIMS Training Plan 
 
The National Integration Center’s (NIC) Incident Management Systems Division (IMSD) has developed a Five-Year National Incident Management System (NIMS) Training Plan.  The Plan establishes a common national foundation for NIMS training and qualifying emergency management/response personnel.  More specifically, the Plan will guide NIMS training activities; support stakeholder training and planning; and serve as a single-source, regularly updated compilation of training within the NIMS national core curriculum.   
 
This national review is intended to provide an opportunity for all stakeholders to comment on the Five-Year NIMS Training Plan.  The review period will begin on Monday September 10, 2007 and will close on Tuesday, September 25, 2007. All comments must be submitted during this period.
