Emergency Preparedness Required Training

1. Emergency PreparednessRequired Training SLCC

2. Salt Lake Community College The College is committed to providing the training necessary for all employees to understand their compliance responsibilities under a variety of government regulations. Supervisors are expected to ensure all new employees, including full-time, part-time, adjunct, paid or unpaid interns, and work study employees, take the online training sessions that are offered immediately, after the employee’s hire date. Continuing employees who have not received some or all of this training, or who were trained more than two years ago, should make arrangements with their supervisor to complete the segments needed immediately.

3. Emergency Preparedness Required Training • This required training will be divided into 4 training segments. • Segment 1: Emergency Preparedness Basics • Segment 2: Emergency Response Handbook and your responsibilities • Segment 3: OSHA Requirements • Segment 4: Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT)

4. Segment 1 • Emergency Preparedness Basics • Understanding How Emergency Preparation works • Phases of Emergency Management

5. Phases of Emergency Management Protection (prevention) Mitigation Preparedness Recovery Response

6. Mitigation-focuses on the impact of a hazard, represents the sustained actions a jurisdiction takes to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property. (You will be involved in mitigation activities.) Mitigation

9. Preparedness Preparedness-ensures that if disaster occurs, people are ready to get through it safely, and respond to it effectively. This is done by training, information, preparation, drills, exercises. Efforts to minimize damages and lay the groundwork for response to an emergency or disaster. (You will be involved in preparedness activities.)
