  • Saturday January 21, 2017 from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.

Description

The first half of the training day will cover the Comprehensive Resource Management and Credentialing System (CRMCS), which is a resource management tool utilized more than 720 organizations in Colorado today and endorsed by the Colorado Department of Public Safety (CDPS).

This statewide solution gives all city, county, municipalities, and tribal agencies the ability to credential personnel/equipment and produce the standardized ID card credential. As of December 16, 2016, almost 13,000 people have been credentialed in the system. This then allows for seamless interoperability across all city, county, and state lines. The resource information is housed in the web-based "Salamander LIVE" system. Folks who attend the training will obtain access to the system and gain the knowledge to be successful utilizing the solution.

The second half of the day will focus on the Salamander "TRACK APP" (for smartphones and tablets) to conduct resource accountability. The Salamander "rapidTAG" incident specific badging system and Salamander "COMMAND" solution will also be covered. Using "Salamander LIVE", this course will also cover the ability to gain greater situational awareness and generate incident specific reports.

 

Audience

Target Audience: State, County and local Emergency Management, Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement, Public Works, Public Health, City/County Administration or any personnel who will be part of an emergency or disaster response. And any individuals who want to learn more about the uses and benefits of this ID and Credentialing System along with volunteer management aspects.
