| HAZ MAT Awareness/Refresher and Incident Command Awareness Training from Michigan State University | ||||||||||||
| Michigan State University, in conjunction with Industrial Safety Consultants, Inc., has developed two on-line Awareness Level training | ||||||||||||
| programs. The first covers Hazardous Materials Response and the second is a program on the Incident Command System. These training | ||||||||||||
| programs, located at www.saferesponse.com are designed for personnel working for federal, state, and local government agencies, | ||||||||||||
| including law enforcement personnel, fire and EMS personnel, Road Commission employees, Health Department personnel and other | ||||||||||||
| public sector personnel who may be first on the scene of a hazardous materials emergency. | ||||||||||||
| First responders at the Awareness Level are individuals who are likely to witness or discover a hazardous substance release. They are | ||||||||||||
| trained to begin the emergency response by notifying the proper authorities. They are also trained to define a hazardous material and | ||||||||||||
| the risks it may pose; to recognize a release; to identify the material, if possible; and to identify the need for additional resources, such | ||||||||||||
| as the area Haz mat Team. Additional training is required if the individual will be responding to the hazardous material emergency. | ||||||||||||
| Incident Command Awareness Training is a program designed for law enforcement, firefighters, emergency managers, emergency | ||||||||||||
| medical personnel, government agencies, the military, security, and facility management personnel who may respond to incidents or be | ||||||||||||
| involved in joint response operations. This program may be utilized as an Awareness Program or as a Refresher Program to the initial | ||||||||||||
| incident command training. | ||||||||||||
| Michigan State University is offering these training programs for a limited time at no cost. If you have questions as to whether your | ||||||||||||
| organization qualifies for this free training, contact ISCI by email at - | info@isciweb.com. | |||||||||||
| A certificate of completion will be sent electronically to the participant. A representative from the employer will need to certify/sign each | ||||||||||||
| certificate. In order to be certified, each participant must complete the required information within the registration process. In addition, | ||||||||||||
| each participant must complete the training on an individual basis. | ||||||||||||
