NIMS / ICS Training

Advanced NIMS Courses (ICS-300 and ICS-400):

The Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security (OKOHS) has partnered with OSU-FST to provide Intermediate and Advanced level NIMS ICS training to Oklahoma's responders. Currently scheduled classes may be viewed by visiting our Training Calendar. 

**A minimum of 15 individuals are required for an ICS 300 or 400 level course to be approved**  

Certificates for ICS-300 and ICS-400 can be obtained through OSUFST on their website www.osufst.org. If you do not have a login, please contact them at 405-744-5727.

You may host a NIMS course at any time by submitting a Course Request Form via email to April Keeler at least 6 weeks in advance of the start date to allow adequate time for materials to be produced and instructors to be scheduled.     

Basic NIMS Courses (Internet Courses): 

Minimum NIMS training includes IS 700, IS 100, and IS 200. The EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT INSTITUTE for FEMA Independent Study Programs (ISP) offers self-paced NIMS and Emergency Management courses designed for people who have emergency response and/or management responsibilities. All courses are offered free-of-charge, 24 hours a day, to those who qualify for enrollment.  

Documentation of Training:

Jurisdictions should keep records of employee/volunteer NIMS training.  All individuals who successfully complete a FEMA Basic NIMS Course receive a certificate in their email. The jurisdiction's POC can keep records in any format they choose so long as proof of training can be obtained.
