Worcester ASSE – January Technical Meeting: “In Emergency Response, Great Plans Are a Smart Thing; Training Is Everything!

  •  January 26, 2017
     8:00 am - 11:00 am

Smart plans are critical. But, if we don’t get the words off the paper and into people’s heads, we have failed. Sandy Hook reinforces that training is everything given that people can’t and won’t run to look at binders for response in a real emergency.

  • What are the legal requirements for training?
  • What are the current practices and obstacles in organizations regarding training?
  • What are the proven ways to train for emergency response?
  • How does your organization compare?

Learning Objectives:

  1. You will learn the laws, regulations, and standards that control emergency plan training.
  2. You will understand how lawsuits affect you and your organization.
  3. You will learn the current attitudes of managers versus what should be the overriding attitude of managers in training employees in emergency response.
  4. You will learn what obstacles organizations face and the consistent mistakes organizations make in emergency training.
  5. You will learn the difference between Emergency Team training and training that meets the objectives for the rest of your employees.
  6. You will learn how to protect your management.
