Course Title: Elected Members: Your Role in Emergency Management [NI]
Who Should Attend: This course is intended for elected members of local authorities in the UK, particularly those members who are engaged in civil protection matters.
Aim: To develop elected members' awareness of civil protection issues and obligations under the Civil Contingencies Act and outline their community leadership role in preparing for, responding to and recovering from emergencies.
Objectives: By the end of this event you will be able to:
- Establish the concept of resilience and the rationale for civil protection.
- Identify the duties placed upon local authorities by the Civil Contingencies Act and critically evaluate your authority’s progress in meeting those.
- Evaluate the potential demands of Integrated Emergency Management on your local authority, before, during and after an emergency.
- Evaluate your responsibilities as an elected member, in the context of civil protection.
- Identify lessons for your own local authority by working through an emergency case study.
This is a highly interactive course, with peer-group syndicate activities and discussion points building from a series of presentations and briefing materials. An emergency exercise tests the principles and identifies learning points to take back to your own local authority.
