Delivering a Continuity solution through Organizational ResilienceAnthony A. Barone
Successful Continuity of Operations/Government in the Federal market requires more than achieving compliance with the Executive Branch Federal Continuity Directive (FCD) -1, 2012. At Capgemini we recognize that an effective Continuity solution warrants the integration of private sector Business Continuity Management (BCM) best practices, proven Project Management (PM) methodologies, as well as synchronization with Risk Management, Emergency Management, and Preparedness practices. Coupled with the Capgemini collaborative business experience, our Continuity practices enables clients to achieve more than just compliance, but also effective and efficient performance. In the midst of economic and budgetary constraints, clients cannot afford ineffective or inefficient processes, nor can they afford cessation in the Continuity of their organization’s mission.

The Life of the National Incident Management SystemKarl Schmitt
The National Incident Management System (NIMS) guides all levels of government, nongovernmental organizations (NGO), and the private sector to work together to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from incidents. NIMS was published in March of 2004, updated in December of 2008, and updated again in October of 2017.

What’s New in the National Response Framework
New Name:
The
National Response Framework
supersedes the
National Response Plan
and more adequately serves as a guide to how the nation conducts incident response. The new name better aligns the document with its intent.
Purpose
: To ensure that government executives, private sector, nongovernmental organization (NGO) leaders, and emergency management practitioners across the nation understand domestic incident response roles, responsibilities and relationships in order to respond more effectively to any type of incident.
Broader Scope:
The
Framework
provides structures for implementing national-level policy and operational coordination for domestic incident response. In this document, incidents include actual or potential emergencies or all-hazard events that range from accidents and natural disasters to actual or potential terrorist attacks. Such incidents range from modest events wholly contained within a single community to others that are catastrophic in nature and national in their scope of consequences.
Wider Audience:
The
Framework
is intended for executive leadership and emergency management practitioners at all levels of government, as well as private sector, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs).
Integrated Key Concepts:
An effective, unified national response requires layered, mutually supporting capabilities, with States having the primary responsibility for public health and welfare of its citizens. Five elemental principles of operation constitute national response doctrine:
Engaged partnerships
Tiered response
Scalable, flexible and adaptable operational capabilities
Unity of effort through unified command
Readiness to act
Expanded Focus on Partnerships:
The
Framework
states that an effective national response requires layered, mutually supporting capabilities. This approach affirms that local communities, tribes and States have primary responsibility for the safety and security of their citizens; that local leaders build the foundation for response and that resilient communities begin with prepared individuals and families.
Updated Planning Section:
The
Framework
contains a section that focuses on the critical importance of planning. The intent is to lay the groundwork to:
Link planning, preparedness, resource and asset management processes, and data in a virtual environment;
Prioritize plans and planning efforts to best support homeland security strategies and allow seamless transition to execution; and
Provide parallel and concurrent planning at all levels of government.
Improved Annexes and Appendixes:
The Emergency Support Functions and Support Annexes have been updated and remain an integral part of the
Framework
. The Incident Annexes will be revised a.
NRFThe National Response Framework (NRF) is a guide to how.docxgibbonshay
NRF
The National Response Framework (NRF) is a guide to how the nation responds to all types of disasters and emergencies.
The NRF is used to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from terrorist attacks, major disasters, and other emergencies.
The NRF also established a fundamental mission to (1) engage partnerships; (2) tiered response; (3) flexible and adaptable operational capability; (4) unity of effort through unified command; and (5) readiness to act.
The governor coordinates state resources and provides the guidance for all types of incidents.
NIMS
The National Incident Management System (NIMS) focus is to better improve the nation's response to emergencies. Its goal is a better system that can more efficiently allocate resources in the event of a disaster and facilitate cooperation among diverse entities and agencies.
NIMS guides all levels of government, non-governmental organizations (NGO), and the private sector to work together to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from incidents.
A comprehensive, nationwide, systematic approach to incident management, including the command and coordination of incidents, resource management, and information management
A set of concepts and principles for all threats, hazards, and events across all mission areas (Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, Recovery)
Scalable, flexible, and adaptable; used for all incidents, from day-to-day to large-scale
Standard resource management procedures that enable coordination among different jurisdictions or organizations
ICS
Management system designed to enable effective and efficient domestic incident management by integrating a combination of facilities, equipment, personnel, procedures, and communications operating within a common organizational structure.
Structured to facilitate activities in five major functional areas: command, operations, planning, logistics, Intelligence & Investigations, finance and administration.
Purpose of enabling incident managers to identify the key concerns associated with the incident often under urgent conditions without sacrificing attention to any component of the command system.
The National Response Framework (NRF) is the guide that established the fundamental mission to engage partnerships, tiered responses, and unit efforts. In short, the NRF is responsible for all the planning and preparedness that goes into the support of the communities.
The National Incident Management System (NIMS) guides the government officials and organizations in the private sector regarding the necessary recourses for the emergencies they are faced with daily. The system is set-up to be resourceful towards any kind of national emergency event, whether it’s to mitigate, prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from.

the Agency Markets Division of Liberty Mutual
Presentation will walk audience through the recent changes in Business Continuity from an insider and
outsider perspective. Presentation will show how mainstream Business Continuity has become through
the use of media, reporting, jobs and advertising. Audience will score their own program and learn from
speaker and audience members of what has changed, why and what is working with other company
programs.
William Moorehead, President, All Clear Emergency Management Group
Using situational analysis, participants will learn to identify common legal issues in emergency
management and how to enhance response through agreements. This session will examine common
legal issues encountered within emergency management and emergency response including liability and
the formation of mutual aid agreements. The audience will analyze hypothetical scenarios and news
stories to identify potential liability issues. The session will highlight the challenges and barriers to
implementing agreements, benefits of prepositioned contracts, and the importance of putting agreement
in place now before they are needed. The goals of the session are to review the fundamentals of
liability, examine common legal issues, discuss best practices, and analyze situations common in
emergency management.
Speaker: Kathryn Koelemay, Medical Epidemiologist, Public Health – Seattle & King County
All hospitals should be prepared to receive pediatric patients in a mass casualty incident and to provide
appropriate short-term acute care and more definitive management, depending upon the nature of the emergency and the extent of its impact on the region. Hospitals of the King County (WA) Healthcare
Coalition are in the process of implementing a regional pediatric disaster response plan, with the goal of
providing consistent, efficient and age-appropriate medical care to pediatric patients at every County
hospital with emergency services in an MCI that involves children. Our “pediatric toolkit,” which was
recognized as a 2010 NACCHO Model Practice winner, suggests guidelines for development of the
hospital‟s pediatric response plan. The regional plan also includes countywide adoption of a color-
coding system based on a length-based resuscitation tape to expedite accurate medication and equipment
deployment.
Speaker: Dick Bower, Building/Fire Safety/Emergency Management Director, City of Gig Harbor
Lack of coordination between members of the emergency management community adversely affects our
ability to protect citizens. While a host of federal, state and local sources provide the emergency
management community with guidance through the four phases of emergency management, such
guidance falls short of emphasizing the full value of an established multi-agency coordination (MAC)
entity and system. By building relationships between the governmental agencies, response partners,
private sector, non-governmental and faith based organizations that make up the community, effective
multi-agency collaboration spanning the entire emergency management continuum can be developed.
Such collaboration provides effective, efficient, and cost-effective emergency management across the
full continuum of emergency management activities. By redefining Multi-Agency Coordination to
include pre-incident/event collaboration planning, mitigation, response and recovery activities can be
greatly improved.
Speakers: David Shannon, Program Manager/ Community Disaster Education, American Red Cross
Donna Platt, Emergency Education Program Manager, Hearing, Speech & Deafness
Center
This session will provide an overview on the Disaster Preparedness Skills Training for Deaf, Deaf-Blind
and Hard of Hearing event which was coordinated by several organizations (emergency responders and
non-profit agencies). This event which was held twice in Seattle turned out to be educational for both
emergency responders and attendees as they learned each other‟s needs and responsibilities in
emergency preparedness. Also this event drew attention from other community based organizations and
emergency responders who expressed an interest in setting up in their location. Tips on setting up an
event and mini-activities will be given. Also pros and cons (or lessons learned) will be discussed.
Sharon Badger, Community Education Coordinator, Northwest Renal Network
This presentation will provide an overview of the end stage of renal disease and the treatments that must
be maintained by the patient until there is a kidney transplant or the patient dies. The presentation will
encourage the disaster planning community to incorporate the special requirements of the kidney
community into local and regional emergency and disaster plans. It will encourage the emergency
managers to utilize both the Network and the individual facilities to create a plan that can best serve this
vulnerable population

Public Education Campaigns come and go. Some are good, even great, but if we don‟t deliver the
message correctly, no one really hears us. The message is only as good as the messenger. Everett
Office of Emergency Management, Snohomish County, and Western Washington University teamed up
to research the effectiveness of Who Depends on You, Are You Prepared for Disaster? And, they found
some interesting results. For instance, in some areas more people have plans for their pets than for their
children. Does that tell us about parents or about our messaging? Does our message catch the attention of those with a high school education more than those with a college education? Is our message missing
important recipients? Come hear the results of the research, discuss their meaning, and participate to
help us design message delivery systems that work. If a public education message falls in the forest and
no one is listening…
Speaker: Althea Rizzo, Geologic Hazards Program Coordinator, Oregon Emergency Management
Public education has consistently been shown to be an effective emergency preparedness and mitigation
strategy when done well. This presentation will give the attendees an effective road map to developing,
implementing and evaluating a public education and outreach program. Using real world examples, the
presenter will show best practices and how to design your outreach campaign to create positive
preventative action by the public.

Victims of disasters often require case management services to help them regain self-sufficiency and
return to their pre-disaster condition. Prior to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita there was no federal authority
to support case management of disaster victims. Consequently, case management was provided through
donated funds and by voluntary agencies. For disasters on a much smaller scale, such as an apartment
fire or flooding, recent experience in Washington State has demonstrated a similar need for a system that
assesses individual and family needs and assists with connecting them with the appropriate services to
address immediate circumstances and longer-term needs. Pierce County and King County have both
developed models to respond to typically unmet needs in their communities.
Speaker: Ted Buehner Warning Coordination Meteorologist National Weather Service
This session provides an extension of information presented in the basic session (see D4). Topics
include: - How to obtain and use National Weather Service (NWS) all-hazards weather support -
Significant Pacific Northwest weather patterns - Storm Surveys – what they are, when are they done
and the local emergency manager‟s participation in them - Washington‟s Presidentially weather-related
disaster rankings and fatality statistics - How to use the NWS web page such as interpreting the weather
radar and satellite imagery, climate/historical data, spotter reports, new digital forecasts and use in your
GIS operations (live demo is planned) - StormReady and TsunamiReady communities – what do they
mean to you and how to apply and get recognized for the work you do - Address your questions.

Our presentation will provide a case study on our approach to overall preparedness the personal aspect
being a large component; b. Program component; c. How we engage execs, employees, and community
partners. In this presentation we will: 1. Share how we are getting our employee base more prepared to
support keeping the company in business; 2. How to motivate and provide incentives for employees to
take action; and, 3. Demonstrate how we partner and engage the public sector to do this.
Speaker: Nimisha Ghosh Roy, Program Developer and Coordinator, Cross Cultural Health Care
Program
The evolving demographics of our communities as well as the dramatic challenges surfacing in the field
of emergency management have resulted in the magnification of issues facing the provision of emergency services for racial and ethnic minority communities. Issues of diversity are present in every
human interaction and must be acknowledged and addressed competently in all emergency management
activities. The Cross Cultural Health Care Program (CCHCP) has worked with organizations and
communities across the nation addressing topics such as effective cross cultural communication skills
for diverse populations and disaster training for medical interpreters. In 2010 CCHCP hosted a
community event to explore the challenges in emergency management facing communities in the Puget
Sound. Through an interactive presentation style involving multimedia and case studies from CCHCP
projects, this presentation will define and discuss the imperative for cultural competency and share best
practices and strategies for culturally competent emergency management.
Speaker: Chris Utzinger, Emergency Logistics Program Manager, Washington State Emergency
Management Division
This presentation provides insight and guidance for local distribution of resources using Community
Points of Distribution (CPODS). The target audience for this session is volunteer organizations
interested in providing distribution assistance and emergency managers that need help getting CPOD
planning started in their jurisdictions. The session is based upon the IS-26 Guide to Points of
Distribution course provided by FEMA‟s Independent Study program and includes an overview of
CPOD layouts, staffing, operations, and public interactions. A sample CPOD kit is presented
highlighting needed personal protective gear and other equipment. The Adopt-A-Pod program, wherein
jurisdictions work with volunteer groups to staff and manage CPODs, is also highlighted. Audience
interest and understanding is enhanced by a hands-on sand table exercise where participants design their
own CPOD layout. Audience participation is highly encouraged, especially with attendees that have
dealt with distribution issues in previous events and can provide case studies for discussion.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

15. Reorganization Of The NIMS Document
The December 2008 version of NIMS reorders the key
components to emphasize the role of preparedness and to
mirror the progression of an incident. This alleviates the
misperception that NIMS is only the Incident Command System
(ICS).

27. NIMS Training Program
• A well-developed training program that facilitates NIMS
training throughout the Nation.
• The National Integration Center (NIC) and Emergency
Management Institute (EMI) develop NIMS-related
training guidance and courses.
28. NIMS Training Program
• Supersedes Five-Year NIMS Training Plan
• Defines a national NIMS curriculum
• Identifies broad NIMS training goals and objectives
• Provides specifications for delivery of NIMS training,
including:
• Course objectives, Contact Hours, Instructor
qualification guidelines
• Guides development of stakeholders’ long-term training
plans, budgets, and schedules as well as grant
qualifications and applications.
29. NIMS Core Curriculum
• Simplified categories for level of training:
• Previous Five-Year NIMS Training Plan:
Awareness, Advanced, or Practicum
• Currently the NIMS Training Program is
Baseline and Advanced
• Training recommendations based upon Incident
Complexity: Type 1-5
30. NIMS Curriculum -
Incident Complexity Types
Type 1 - Most complex, requiring national resources for safe
and effective management and operation
Type 2 - Incident extends beyond the capabilities for local
control and is expected to go into multiple operational
periods
Type 3 - Incident needs exceed capabilities, the appropriate
ICS positions should be added to match the complexity of
the incident
Type 4 - Command staff and general staff functions are
activated only if needed
Type 5 - The incident can be handled with one or two single
resources with up to six personnel
31. NIMS Core Curriculum:

34. NIMS Training Program
• NIMS Core Curriculum Course Summaries
• Expanded course and instructor information
• Addition of Unit Leader and related positions
• FEMA Sponsored NIMS Coursework - NEW
• Emergency Management Institute (EMI) and National
Fire Academy (NFA) courses
• Variety of delivery methods
• Association to NIMS Components
36. ICS Position Specific Training Basics
NIMS ICS Position Specific training is designed to
provide all-hazards competencies and behaviors for
the eight Command and General Staff positions and
for specific unit leaders under ICS
The competencies in the training are focused
around the ability of the student to assume the
position responsibilities, lead assigned personnel,
communicate effectively, and to ensure the
completion of assigned actions to meet identified
objectives for the position
37. ICS Position Specific Training Basics
continued
NIMS ICS Position Specific training should be
completed by personnel who desire to eventually be
certified as a member of a Type III Incident
Management Team (IMT) or who desire to seek
credentials/certification in an ICS Command and
General Staff or unit leader position
Personnel qualification relies on a combination of
training, operational experience (during exercises or
incidents), job shadowing, and administrative
requirements (such as agency association and
criminal background checks).
38. ICS Position Specific Training Basics
continued
Credentialed personnel in an ICS Command and
General Staff or unit leader position must supplement
training for a candidate to meet minimum expectations to
qualify for service in an all-hazards NIMS position during
a complex multi-jurisdictional incident nationwide
(incidents that require responders to hold credentials
under the National Emergency Responder Credentialing
System)
Students who wish to complete NIMS ICS All-Hazards
Command and General Staff and Unit Leader position
specific training should have completed ICS-100, 200,
300, and 400 training
40. Course Status to Date (Continued)
All-Hazards Public Information Officer Course (L-952)
All-Hazards Safety Officer Course (L-954)
All-Hazards Resource Unit Leader Course (L-965)
All-Hazards Situation Unit Leader Course (L-964)
All-Hazards Communication Unit Leader Course (L-
969)
All-Hazards Supply Unit Leader Course (L-970)
All-Hazards Finance/Administration Unit Leader
Course (L-975)
All-Hazards Division/Group Supervisor Course (L-960)
All-Hazards Facility Unit Leader Course (L-971)
41. Assumptions
More training alone will not necessarily “qualify” a person to
serve in an ICS position
– Personnel qualification relies on a combination of training,
operational experience, field mentoring, participation in
drills, exercises, ICS simulations, etc.
NIMS ICS Position Specific Training should be conducted by
qualified instructors (minimum instructor standards need to
be established and adhered to)
DHS/FEMA should have one agreed upon set of NIMS ICS
Position Specific training materials based on all-hazards
competencies and behaviors (THESE ARE THE
MATERIALS)
http://training.fema.gov/emicourses/allhazardscourses.asp
42. Assumptions
The completion of ICS-100, 200, 300 and 400
training does not certify or credential a person in an
ICS position as part of the National Emergency
Responder Credentialing System or in other words
the completion of ICS training (100 thru 400) does
not qualify someone to be an incident commander, or
a planning section chief, etc.
44. Credentialing Guidelines
• The new guidelines originated from the 2004 credentialing
doctrine in the National Interagency Incident Management
System (NIIMS). As the development group looked at the issue,
it concluded that credentialing has to cover federal, state, local,
EMAC critical resources, volunteers and working personnel in
critical infrastructure facilities. States will coordinate the entry
system and the details of the badging.
• The New Credentialing Guideline ‐‐‐ Based on 2010 Public
Comments and FEMA NP Deputy Administrator direction, the
current document was revised to better address (1) Identity
Badge issuance for responders, (2) Management of Responder
Qualifications, and (3) Managing Access to Disaster sites.
• The new guidelines were released 08/20/2011.
45. Emergency Response
Field Operations Guide & NIMS Forms
• The FEMA ICS Field Operations Guide (FOG) Status –
was out for Public Comment in the Federal Register
presently and comments are being reviewed.
• ICS Forms Status –
• Are finished and on line at the FEMA NIMS website.
• Area Command ICS Forms
Area Command ICS forms are now in development and
due out next year.
