This online workshop will guide participants through the process of developing an Emergency Preparedness Framework for their museum. Participants will learn how to assemble an Emergency Response Team, write and implement an Emergency and Disaster Plan, and determine what tools, training, and processes they need to be ready when disaster strikes.
This workshop should take approximately five hours to complete, with additional resources and readings provided throughout the seven modules to continue your learning after the completion of the workshop. The workshop is completed individually and asynchronously.
Participants will use the HELP! An Emergency Preparedness Manual for Museums, 2nd Edition as a resource to take the first steps in implementing an Emergency Preparedness Framework in their institutions. This manual provides guidance, tools, forms, templates, case studies, and other resources to assist museums in taking a systems approach to emergency preparedness and response. The manual and its contents will be referenced throughout this workshop.
