Emergency Preparedness Workshop

Corporate Education & Training in partnership with Strategic Planning Partners, LLC is pleased to present this workshop. Businesses must understand the emergency response and recovery system in place at all levels of government and the level of support that exists to assist during a regional disaster. Every business should consider the impacts of events on their ability to keep their doors open and stay in business in the face or a regional or facility specific incident. This workshop provides participants with a detailed understanding of the steps necessary and tools available to build an all-hazards emergency preparedness plan for a company.

The instructor, Michael Griffin is a founding partner of Strategic Planning Partners, LLC, a Long Island based Emergency Preparedness and Homeland Security consulting firm. In addition to his work with SPP, Mr. Griffin has over 13 years experience in the emergency preparedness and security business specializing in formulation of Emergency Response and Contingency Plans for the U.S. Coast Guard and other State & Local government agencies around the nation.

Recent events ranging from September 11, 2001, Hurricane Katrina, the Northeast Power Grid blackout to the Wildfires in California serve as reminders that we always face unknown emergencies either man-made or natural disaster.
