The Federal Emergency Management Agency continues to monitor the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as it relates to COVID-19. To mitigate the spread of COVID-19, the CDC is encouraging organizations to promote social distancing, hold meetings via videoconferencing, reduce non-essential travel, and adjust or postpone events and gatherings. We also continue to evaluate the local and national situation and will provide regular updates.
Students will be notified in advance concerning the status of their on-campus course offering.
We thank you for your understanding, and we invite you to visit our extensive catalog of Independent Study Courses as well as classroom courses available by virtual delivery.
There is currently an issue with verifying FEMA Student Identification (SID) Numbers, as a result Independent Study (IS) course exams, Instructor Materials Download Application (IMDA ), the Student Training Asset Repository (STAR), and NETC Online Admissions are not available until the FEMA SID issue is resolved.
