Got ICS Certs?
Every patroller has taken the FEMA course Incident Command System 100 (ICS-100) as part of OEC, so, of course, we’ve all got that certification.
If you’ve taken Mountain Travel & Rescue Fundamentals (MTR F) or Mountain Travel & Rescue Level 1 (MTR 1), you’ve taken the FEMA course Incident Command System 700 (ICS-700).
Those lucky enough to have taken Mountain Travel & Rescue Level 2 (MTR 2) have taken the FEMA course Incident Command System 200 (ICS-200).
Some of you may have gotten these certifications as part of a Search and Rescue team, or just for fun.
Why am I writing about these?
NSP would like to know if you have these certifications! If you log on to NSP and check your profile, these certifications should be listed in your Education/Roles.
Are you checking? I’ll wait.
Do you see all three certifications? Some who have earned all three may see only one or two. You did the work…we’d love to see those certifications in your profile!
Let’s get this done!
To upload your ICS-200 or ICS-700 certificate:
• Log in to NSP and go to the Center for Learning.
• In the course search field, type in “Incident Command.”
• Enroll in the course titled: Incident Command System 200 or 700 Certificate Submission.
• Since you’ve already taken the FEMA courses and have your certificates, all you need to do is begin the course in the Center for Learning.
• The only requirement is to upload the certificate.
Thank you for taking care of this. Your profile will thank you.
