http://www.citizencorps.gov/cert/newsletter/CERT%20Final%20Newsletter_091608.pdfHere is another goverment program that you should be able to take for free if someone sponsors it in your area. My wife who is a RN took it and it does cover a number of topics. She has not participated in any other functions or training since the original class. Some of the stuff is good and some is not the latest or logical. Your name will be on another list but hers is already on lists. Plus she got a green vest and hard hat, you never know when appearing as someone oficial might enable you to get away/away with stuff.
