A disaster or emergency situation can occur when we least expect. It is especially important to be prepared in a child care setting since infants and children may be physically and/or developmentally unable to protect themselves. Child care facilities that have a plan in place and practice it on a regular basis are better able to protect the children in their care. This course is designed to present child care providers with the tools necessary to develop an effective disaster preparedness plan along with guidance on how to assemble a disaster supplies kit for childcare facilities. This self-paced course was developed with the busy working professional in mind. The course is comprised of a pre-test, course content, post-test, learning activities along with emergency plan templates and checklists. You can log onto the course to study the materials as many times as you wish before taking the final exam.
