This interactive incident command lab addresses the complexities and difficulties that can occur with communication, tracking, and accountability when emergencies don’t go according to plan. Led by Tablet Command’s Andy Bozzo, the three-hour session will start with a group discussion where instructors will identify the pain points of incident management and list the most vital pieces of information needed in the first few minutes of an emergency. Then, the class will examine and compare legacy methods of maintaining accountability and look at the pros and cons. During a lab portion, where students will use tablets, you will be introduced to the components of a basic digital command platform and utilize this in crawl, walk, and run scenarios where the degree of difficulty increases. Throughout the session, attendees will be supported by floating instructors and encouraged to challenge the digital command model throughout the session.
