FEMA’s Emergency Management Institute (EMI) provides courses in ICS and NIMS online.  The following courses are recommended:

Upon completion of each course and its exam, EMI will issue a PDF completion certificate by email.  Please send your completion certificates to me when you complete a course so I can add it to your CERT training records (you may either print it and bring it to a meeting or forward the file to me).
