Emergency Centre Officer Training (Face-to-Face)

This training will equip Emergency Centre Officers with the necessary skills and behaviours needed to run an Emergency Centre

Emergencies can and do strike without warning, pushing community members into unfamiliar situations and disrupting support networks. In these crucial early stages, the provision of shelter, safety and information are vital. Emergency centres provide a centre point for this support to be delivered; they require decisive action and pragmatic decision making of the manager to ensure the safety and well-being of all those affected.

As part of the London Local Authority's emergency planning sector standardisation, and within the wider context of the UK’s latest guidance on Emergency Centres, this half-day training course will equip the attendee with the necessary skills to run an emergency centre in the role of Emergency Centre Manager.
