National Fire Academy National Fire Academy. Some online courses here too. I remember their Incident Command System courses were pretty good and laid down the fundamentals of how command and control is supposed to work during major fires/disasters. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Extrabonez: What is needed, if anything, after completion of the outlined sections? That depends, to some extent, on the agency. Federally you'll need a single day field exercise and pack test (3 miles with 45lbs in 45 minutes or less, no running). If you want full time employment with a state agency they may have additional requirements. |

I've completed the posted courses, now what as far as the APC (who requested I take them) is concerned? I'm not actually planning on seeking employment as a wildland firefighter, so I'm looking to you for direction. |

I finished up last night. Good courses.
The L-180 is set up differently. I ended up using the Adobe that their site linked. There were a few issues. The biggest issue for me was the course didn't recognize my completed work. It would let me continue on, like it recognized it. But, it wouldn't check anything off. It let me go all the way to the end, and complete the sim. I restarted the course a couple of times, trying to get it to "kick in". No dice. If experiencing issues early on, I would take pictures of your completed/passed tests. Definitely take a pic of your passed sim with AAR. If you have to contact them, they will want to see these. This might not affect anyone else, but it can happen. |

Another useful distance learning course for those still in the military, either active or reserve component is Defense Support of Civil Authorities, P-US1394 (overview) & T-US010 (6 hrs ph1).
The mission of the DSCA online course is to familiarize DOD and other agency personnel in Defense Support of Civilian Authorities Operations. This course introduces national, state, local, and DOD statutes, directives, plans, command and control relationships, and capabilities with regard to DOD support for domestic emergencies and for designated law enforcement and other activities. https://jko.jten.mil/ |

This thread really DOES deliver.
I took the Incident Command courses before deploying to Africa in 2017, but now I'm looking to expand the scope of my training, and have evidently come to the right place! Thanks for posting all these courses and info, y'all! Didn't want to leave without contributing: Army Publishing Directorate has thousands of TMs and FMs on everything from real estate management to archived copies of obsolete weapon manuals.
