EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS TRAINING

The Toronto EMCOMM Group has developed a series of emergency communications training modules for EmComm/ARES personnel involved or interested in providing radio communications support for their community during emergencies and public service events.

The EmComm Training manual developed by the Toronto EmComm Group can be referenced at home but is also accompanied with a series of Power-Points for classroom instruction. The communications networks section of the instruction can be easily modified with your local community information.

All resource material can be found in the training section of this site.
