You set up a training profile before you pay. It asks for more than a normal checkout does - your employer, your role, an emergency contact - because this is a training record, not a shopping cart. It is the file an auditor asks to see, and it is why you can pull your certificate up years from now instead of hunting for a PDF in your email. Give yourself five minutes and do it once.

About the course
What this course covers.
ICS 100 teaches the structure. ICS 200 is where a front-line supervisor or first responder learns to actually use it - establishing command on arrival, managing a single resource, and running the incident until a larger response arrives or command transfers.
The course works through leadership and the chain of command, management by objectives, how the ICS organisation flexes to the size of the incident, positions and functional areas, the briefings and meetings ICS uses, and the process for transferring command.
This is an awareness-level course: it builds shared understanding and critical knowledge of ICS rather than certifying a specialist role, and it is intended for anyone who may be first on scene and need to establish command.
