Emergency Management Institute Training
The Emergency Management Institute (EMI) serves as the national focal point for the development and delivery of emergency management training. This training enhances the capabilities of the Federal, state, and local government, volunteer organizations, and the private sector to minimize the impact of disasters on the American public.
EMI curricula, including the Independent Study Program courses, are structured to meet the needs of this diverse audience with an emphasis on how the various elements work together in emergencies to save lives and protect property.
The Independent Study Program is a distance learning program offered free of charge to the American public. It serves as both an alternate means to deliver valuable training to the professional and volunteer emergency management community, and an opportunity to improve public awareness and promote disaster preparedness nationally.
Please visit the Independent Study Program website to get started.

Training and Exercise Plan
The purpose of the Health Emergency Management Training and Exercise Plan (TEP) is to build a capabilities and performance-based training and exercise program that provides a standardized methodology for emergency response training and exercise design, development, implementation, and evaluation.
The TEP is a "living document" that is updated and refined quarterly. It provides a roadmap for assuring an effective program that reflects identified needs within the Public Health community. This TEP is shared with the DHSEM to assist in coordination of development of the annual statewide Training and Exercise Planning Workshop (TEPW).
