Spots remaining for Coastal Community Resilience training course in Woods Hole. 

Two sessions of the four-hour course, presented by the National Disaster Preparedness Training Center at the University of Hawaii, will be held - Monday, August 5, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and again on Tuesday, August 6, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the auditorium of Redfield Laboratory at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

The course provides participants with an understanding of the concept of resilience as it applies to coastal communities with a focus on resilience as a unifying framework for community-based planning, preparedness, response and recovery.  It emphasizes target capabilities to enhance preparedness and response to natural disasters, including chronic, as well as extreme events affecting coastal communities.  It also demonstrates how to integrate risk-based, community-based, and collaborative strategies into plans and programs.  

It is targeted to a broad-cross section of professionals involved in emergency management, fire services, coastal zone managers, planners and developers, and municipal services.
