CJA 376 Wk 2 – Summative Assessment: NIMS Course and Critical Incident Scenario

Critical incident management is an area that requires communication between multiple governmental organizations and agencies. The relationships between the organizations are key in effectively managing the situation at hand. In this 2-part assignment, you will take an industry course on the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and become familiar with NIMS concepts, principles, and components. After finishing the course, you will gain a certification by completing the final exam associated with the course. In the second part of the assignment, you will apply your knowledge of NIMS in evaluating a fictional emergency management situation.
