ICS 300 - Course

This two-day course provides training on and resources for personnel who require advanced application of the Incident Command System (ICS). The target audience includes all individuals who may assume a supervisory role in expanding incidents. This course expands upon information covered in ICS 100 and 200 courses. (Both are prerequisites for ICS 300.) The course is required for those jurisdictions that choose to comply with the National Incident Command System (NIMS) ensuring they continue receiving their federal preparedness funding grants. We are recommending that jurisdictions enroll middle management who will be acting in the role of incident commander or section chief during an event.
