DSC 1004 Introduction to NRF and NIMS

This course introduces participants to the National Response Framework (NRF) and specifies how the resources of the Federal Government work in concert with state, local, and tribal governments and the private sector to respond to incidents of national significance. The NRF is predicated on the National Incident Management System (NIMS). This course shows how the NRF and the NIMS provide a nationwide template for working together to prevent or respond to threats and incidents regardless of cause, size, or complexity.
