Course Goal

The overall course goal is to promote effective response by:

  • Familiarizing you with the Incident Command System (ICS) and the NIMS principles used to manage incidents.
  • Preparing you to coordinate with response partners from all levels of government and the private sector.

IS-100.c provides information on ICS which is part of the National Incident Management System (NIMS). To learn more about NIMS following completion of this course, you can take IS-700.b: An Introduction to the National Incident Management System.
