| This six day course is designed to introduce Command Officers to the complexities |
| involved in commanding incidents in high-risk areas. Students are confronted with a |
| number of fire and rescue incidents that include high life hazard, multiple exposure, and |
| unusual occupancy risk considerations. The students are taught advanced applications |
| in ICS, Command and Control, decision making, strategic and tactical considerations, |
| preincident preparation, documentation and post incident analysis. Several simulations |
| and case studies are used to depict and review incidents in various types of target |
| hazards. Some examples of these are penal institutions, bulk oil storage facilities, nursing |
| homes, colleges, chemical/agricultural manufacturing plants and grain elevators. The |
| course is comprehensive and uses lecture, case study simulation and student |
| participation as instructional methods. |
