Emergency Preparedness Class
The University Police Department and Emergency Management have partnered to bring a one-hour Emergency Preparedness class to interested University departments, teams and groups. The class is short on lecture and instead devotes much of the hour to scenarios where presenters ask participants how they might respond. The interactive discussion is designed to immerse participants in the learning process.
Topics included in the session include:
- ISU Emergency Alert (what it is, how it works, how to register)
- Emergency Guides (flip charts)
- BirdWatch Guidebook (inside the Illinois State University app)
- Department Emergency Response Plans
- Evacuation Assembly Areas & Accountability
- Specific Scenarios
- Fire inside a building
- Tornado hitting campus
- Hazardous Materials Incident
- Armed Robbery
- Bomb Threat
- Shots Fired
- Active Shooter
