Subject: [EVHC] TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES PART 1
Date: June 26th 2025
Hello, 

EVHC has more training opportunities and updates. But first, I want to explain why we are pushing an Infrastructure TEEX series from Virginia Beach. Over the past year we have seen complications and challenges arise throughout Virginia, from the Richmond water crisis to the communication system failure during Hurricane Helene, we want you to be prepared and aware of how to address these challenges when it arises here. That is why we are pushing for you to take MGT 482, MGT 317, MGT 343. These classes are also a prequel to potential projects. Please take the opportunity to learn more through these classes.

The “Learn with Me” series is a quarterly virtual learning opportunity designed to engage our membership and beyond on relevant and timely topics. Each one-hour session will highlight lessons learned, best practices, and practical “how-to” guidance to strengthen preparedness and response capabilities across the region.

Donald Denson will be the first speaker, he is the Organizational Resilience Senior Program Manager Texas Children's Hospital in Austin, Texas. This presentation discusses the impact of challenges, specifically the deadly school bus crash MCI event, faced by the newly opened Texas Children's Hospital in Austin, Texas, 30 days after its opening. This presentation covers the impacts on family reunification, mass-casualty response, triage, and overall event failures. Lastly, this presentation discusses the second school bus crash, which occurred exactly eight months after the initial, deadly bus crash.

MGT 317: Disaster Management for Public Services and Public Works
This class is scheduled on August 20th & 21st, from 8:00 a.m.- 5:00 p.m. The location is City of Virginia Beach PU Dept, 3500 Dam Neck Road Virginia Beach Virginia 23453. 
Public services and public works play a vital role in disaster management. Public services safeguard communities and minimize the impacts of incidents. The mission of public works agencies across the country is to construct, maintain, and protect our Nation’s public infrastructure and facilities. Consequently, disaster management efforts need to be integrated between critical infrastructure, emergency management, and support personnel. Clear communication and coordination between utilities, transportation, fire, public safety, city planning/urban development, public health, and local, state, and federal emergency management officials ensure an effective and resilient response and recovery.
The Disaster Management for Public Services and Public Works course brings together representatives from public service and public works agencies who are expected to identify and mitigate hazards and plan and manage disaster response and recovery efforts within their jurisdictions. Participants work together in multidisciplinary teams to apply the course information with their professional experience in a variety of hands-on, small group activities, and disaster scenarios.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you!
