About this event
This interactive Hurricane Preparedness Training will include: -Facts and features of tropical cyclones -What to expect and how to stay safe before, during, and after a storm -Tips and information for better understanding forecasting information released by the National Hurricane Center -Concrete steps and best practices for being prepared for hurricanes both at home and at work -University emergency preparedness information -Question Answer section While we understand that this information is most important for people who may not have experience with preparing for and responding to hurricanes and tropical storms, we also stress that this training is appropriate for all levels of experience with hurricanes and strongly recommend it to everyone. Each class offers the opportunity for brief discussion of previous experiences and tips/best practices learned from those who have been through previous storms. There are many things we can learn from each other in order to become a more resilient community. All faculty, staff, and students are encouraged to register. Once you are registered, you will receive a reminder email and Zoom link for the training session. A web camera and microphone capability are strongly preferred to promote interactivity but not required.
