E/L/B-339 / RCCC (1.5 days) (REP Instructor Cadre)

11. Scott Hallett / REP ProgramApril 29, 2014 REP Plan Review Course 11  This course focuses on the review of REP emergency plans, specifically the NUREG 0654 planning standards that address the public’s health and safety.  The revised REP Plan Review Course will include training based on the Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG) - 101, familiarization of Hostile Action Based (HAB) plan review, annual plan review and the Annual Letter of Certification Review Guide process. E/L/B-340 / RPPR (3.0 days) (REP Instructor Cadre)

12. Scott Hallett / REP ProgramApril 29, 2014 REP Exercise Evaluator Course 12  Topics include regulations and guidelines for evaluating REP exercises, in preparation of, observations during, post-exercise activities, and techniques for exercise evaluation.  This also includes the observation of video vignettes of REP exercises and the development of exercise narratives submitted to the REP Exercise Evaluation Tool (EET), for review by REP adjunct instructors.  Federal, State, Local, Tribal, and utility personnel who are involved in the development of off-site REP plans and exercises may apply. This course fulfills the credentialing training requirements for becoming a Type III REP Exercise Evaluator. E/L/B-304 / REEC (3.5 days) (REP Instructor Cadre)

13. Scott Hallett / REP ProgramApril 29, 2014 Radiological Accident Assessment Course 13  This course addresses radiological consequences of accidents involving radiological materials. This includes accidents or incidents involving commercial power reactors, lost sources, dispersion devices, and transportation.  The focus of the course is concepts involved in formulating protective action recommendations following a radiological accident, such as dose quantities, atmospheric dispersion, dose projection, protective action guides, and derived intervention levels. Participants engage in problem-solving sessions and a tabletop exercise. E/L/B-341 / RAAC (5.0 days) (REP Instructor Cadre)

14. Scott Hallett / REP ProgramApril 29, 2014 REP Disaster Initiated Review Course 14  This course is designed to provide the student with fundamental knowledge of the Disaster Initiated Review (DIR) Standard Operating Procedure and Post Disaster Assessment of Offsite Capabilities Checklists.  At the end of this course, participants should be able to demonstrate an awareness of the responsibilities, procedures and protocols for the accomplishment of a DIR and demonstrate an ability to function as a member of a DIR Team by participating in a DIR table-top exercise.

18. Scott Hallett / REP ProgramApril 29, 2014 (EOPT) View EOPT YouTube Video Emergency Operations Planning Tool 18  Ensures NIMS and NRF consistent plans: The EOPT coaches planners through the development process. The template provides suggested content and a pop-up NIMS Coach that presents section-by-section guidance for NIMS consistency. The Planning Coach that provides immediate access to current FEMA planning guidance.  Reduces likelihood of gaps in plan: Comprehensive all-hazards checklist framework reduces chances of gaps in plans.  Reduces overall planning time: Multi-user framework supports a team-based approach to plan development, allowing many contributors to work simultaneously.  Provides real-time view of plan progress: Makes tracking progress of collaborative planning much easier. Planners at all levels get a real-time view of where their organization is, in terms of plan development and completion.
