East Haddam CERT Training Classes

The CERT Program educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact our area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations.

Using the training learned in the classroom and during exercises, CERT members can assist others in their neighborhood or workplace following an event when professional responders are not immediately available to help. CERT members also are encouraged to support emergency response agencies by taking a more active role in emergency preparedness projects in their community.

Additional info on CERT can be found at www.citizencorps.gov/cert.

We need a minimum of 15 per class but would like to max them out at 25 people per class.

All classes will be held at the East Haddam Fire House on Town Street.
