Trainings
The Yolo County Office of Emergency Services provides regular training to County EOC Personnel and emergency staff within the Yolo County Operational Area.
Yolo County is embracing the whole community effort to strengthen the Resource Management component of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) that provides a nationwide approach to resource management, enabling stakeholders to work together to manage all threats and hazards, regardless of the incident’s cause or size. With input from whole community partners and stakeholders, FEMA developed the NIMS National Qualification System (NQS) that provides a foundational guideline on the qualification of personnel resources within the NIMS framework, plus supporting tools. FEMA also crafted the NIMS Job Titles/Position Qualifications, accompanying Position Task Books (PTB), Resource Typing Definitions and the NIMS Guideline for Mutual Aid. California Office of Emergency Services (CalOES) credentialing program has been designed to align with FEMA National Qualification Standards.
Yolo County OES Training embraces the following objectives:
- Support NIMS and SEMS education and training for all emergency management and response personnel
- Align training with Cal OES Credentialing Program and the NIMS National Qualification System
