Computer-Aided Management of Emergency Operations

Advanced Cameo

(Computer Aided Management of Emergency Operations)

As conducted by the National Center for Biomedical Research and Training**

County EMA Training Room

September 14, 15, 16 2010 from 8am to 5pm

In the ongoing effort to assist our current and potential Hazmat Technicians, and those responders who provide direct support, gain and practice skills and satisfy portions of their annual training requirements to maintain certification Louisiana State University’s NCBRT offers and advanced course in CAMEO.  The “performance level” (meaning hands-on) Intro to CAMEO PER-229 was conducted at the EMA last January. The advanced-level instruction is the capstone course. 

All applicants should have graduated from a previous CAMEO introductory training course or possess documented and extensive familiarity with the subject.

There are no specific pre-requisites for this class, but the applicant should be extremely familiar with hazardous material scene operations, computers, databases, and acquainted with digital mapping.  They should possess knowledge of CAMEOfm, MARPLOT, ALOHA, and the Chemical Library functions. 

  • To better understand how the programs interface, participants are provided opportunities to practice key CAMEO procedures that allow users to enhance planning and response activities associated with community risks. These exercises clarify the connections between the programs and how they can enhance emergency planning and response activities.
  • Experienced CAMEO users who are knowledgeable in state, county/parish, or municipal emergency planning and response procedures; community emergency planning processes for chemical hazards; and hazards analysis processes for chemical incidents should apply.
  • Target Audience/Discipline: Emergency Medical Services, Emergency Management Agency, Fire Service, Governmental Administrative, Hazardous Materials Personnel, Law Enforcement, Public Health

As the class size is strictly limited to a max enrollment of 24, preference will be given to graduates of the Intro to CAMEO course and then by date of receipt of the signed application.  This 24-credit-hour (course code MGT-320) class will be conducted at RCEMA on 14/15/16 September 2010 from 0800 to 1700 as a field course by LSU.  The NCBRT is the same organization that conducted the Intro Course PER-229 in September and the Sampling Techniques PER-222 classes for both Rutherford County and the Lawrenceburg Hazmat Team last year and who received high marks for the quality & utility of their presentation. 

An application is attached.  You can see further information on both our website and that of the NCBRT.  Last day to apply is 13 Aug 10.  Please fill the application, get it signed, attach the pre-requisite certificate and get it to me in the usual ways via fax, mail, or delivery.  Again, class size is limited to the first 24 qualified applicants. 

Advanced CAMEO will satisfy part of the annual training requirement to maintain certification by the state for Hazmat Techs and many others.
