Emergency Management British Columbia (EMBC), under the Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General, has developed an online Emergency Management Training Manual designed to build a common understanding of emergency management in British Columbia (BC).

The manual is designed as a reference guide to support the core Emergency Management principles applied in BC. It is meant to compliment the Emergency Management training that is offered through EMBC. It will provide a comprehensive overview to:

• BC’s emergency management framework
• The roles and responsibilities of all levels of government in preparing for and responding to major emergencies
• The systems, processes and structures for mitigating, preparing for, responding to and recovering from emergencies
• While the manual does not cover everything you may encounter in helping your community, it will help you see emergency management from a broad perspective.
