Level: Introductory
This training will inform attendees about how to incorporate resilience into federal facilities. The training will provide an overview of resilience and review the key attributes of resilience. Attendees can expect to learn more about resilience planning. Additionally, attendees will learn about high-impact, low-frequency events and their place in resilience planning, and how climate change will impact resilience.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, attendees will be able to:
- Identify the key attributes of resilience, including resourcefulness, redundancy, robustness, and recovery.
- Recognize how resilience planning and emergency management differ and how they can complement each other.
- Recognize the concept of a high-impact, low-frequency event and its place in resilience planning.
