Course Overview
The Incident Command System (ICS) is a standardized, flexible framework used globally for managing emergencies and disasters. By establishing clear roles, communication lines, and command hierarchies, ICS enables organizations and public agencies to respond to incidents efficiently and collaboratively.
This course explores ICS principles, organizational structures, roles and responsibilities, operational planning, resource management, and inter-agency coordination. Participants will learn how to implement ICS frameworks for a wide range of emergencies, from natural disasters to technological incidents.
At EuroQuest International Training, participants engage in real-world case studies, simulations, and role-play exercises to gain hands-on experience in ICS implementation.
