The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Program educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their 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 CERT exercises, members can assist their community or workplace following an emergency event when professional responders are not immediately available to help.
Please obtain supervisor approval before signing up.
The course is FREE and you will receive a CERT manual in class and CERT kit upon course completion.
This free training includes an online lecture portion and is to be followed up by an in-person, hands-on, practical portion.
Before registering, please fill out the Lake County Volunteer Enrollment Form provided in the link below.
