The breakneck pace for everything Rod has to learn and everything the EMA has to do continues!
Rod has now completed the IS-100, IS-200, IS-230, IS-235, IS-240, IS-700, and IS-800. He is well on his way to attaining compliance with the National Incident Management System standards used for EMDs across our nation.
He has now attended his first Regional Homeland Security Oversight Committee meeting and is learning about the grant process and other intricacies of the RHSOC.
He is also officially official, having received his EMA uniforms! Pretty spiffy!
We have a couple more updates about our office going out soon, so stay tuned!
