Professional Development Courses
Professional Development Programs are not aligned with competencies and do not have an assessment requirement.
Introduction to Emergency Risk Management
Introduction to Emergency Risk Management (ERM) is a program that introduces the basic concepts of ERM at an introductory level.
The program will introduce you to the concept of risk and the method used to manage emergency level risk in a community environment. It will also give you an opportunity to explore and consider some of the many aspects of what can go wrong and the consequences.
Recovery Management Programs
Recovery management is the coordinated process of supporting disaster-affected communities in the reconstruction of the physical infrastructure and the restoration of emotional, social, economic and physical wellbeing. Recovery can provide an opportunity to improve these aspects beyond previous conditions, by enhancing social and natural environments, infrastructure and economies – contributing to a more resilient community. Disaster recovery is part of emergency management, which includes the broader components of prevention, preparedness and response. Planning for recovery is integral to emergency preparation and mitigation actions may often be initiated as part of recovery.
The Recovery Management programs offered by the Australian Emergency Management Institute explore current recovery management principles, practices and ideas, enabling an understanding of the complex and ever changing environment in which recovery managers work.
