Training
A variety of training opportunities are available to emergency responders, both public and private, to enhance response capabilities. These classes cover a wide range of topics and we attempt to present offerings in multiple disciplines. All classes receive certification and CEUs may be available.

These programs are offered as part of the conference registration fee but class sizes are limited and only available on a first come first serve basis. Registration confirmation is required to attend.

Networking and Partnership Building

With the conference focusing on the local emergency manager, there are many opportunities for interaction with counterparts in the field. This forum is intended to bring New Jersey’s emergency management professionals, career and volunteer, together to exchange ideas and information. There are many opportunities during training for formal interaction as well as scheduled social sessions to mix and mingle and share ideas.
