Book Description
"TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 95: Integrating Community Emergency Response Teams at Airports (A-CERTs) provides guidance and tools designed to help organize and operate a citizen volunteer program to assist airport staff in emergency events or disasters. The report, produced as a three part set, consists of the following: Part 1, What is a CERT and How Do I Use It?, explains what an community emergency response team (CERT) program is and how it can be used in the airport environment. Part 2, Basic Training Instructor Guide, includes a detailed curriculum designed to train volunteers to potentially assist at an airport during emergency events or disasters. Part 3, Basic Training Student Guide, is based on the instructors guide and is a resource for students as well as a takeaway from the training. Also produced as part of ACRP Report 95 are customizable PowerPoint slides--for use by the instructor during training--and a video that can be used to educate the community and solicit volunteers."--Publisher's description.
