This course is designed to teach hands on and theoretical skills in search management in Planning, Operations and Logistics functions. The instructor cadre bring hundreds of hours of search and search management experience. The content of the class is similar to, but does not replace the Cal OES Direction and Control of the Search Function, which is primarily focused on training Incident Commanders (IC’s). The course will follow the four phases of a search: hasty, 1st operational, multiple operations, and the find/suspension periods. To prepare for the challenges faced on every search the students will learn through lectures, handouts, discussions, as will as getting their hands dirty in the paper work through a multi-phase tabletop map exercises to hone their skills. Upon completion of the Course the student will take the National Association for Search and Rescue (NASAR) Managing the Lost Person Incident (MLPI) exam and receive Certification and completion certificate
