Recommendations for Individuals & Families
CERT provides training in emergency preparedness
and basic response techniques enabling citizens to
take a more active role in personal and public safety.
Each CERT member completes 24 hours of training on
disaster preparedness, basic disaster medical
operations, fire safety, light search and rescue, and
other essential topics. The training also includes a
disaster simulation in which participants practice
skills they learned throughout the course. In the
event of an emergency, CERT members can provide
immediate assistance to victims, assist in organizing
spontaneous volunteers at a disaster site and provide
critical support to first responders.
