Experience Real-World Training with LMSTI

Just like our other residential courses, the LMSTI program transitions you from the classroom to real-world scenarios, immersing participants in the most realistic situations possible. Leveraging the frameworks of the Incident Command System (ICS), National Incident Management System (NIMS), and the broader National Response Framework (NRS), participants move from theoretical concepts to practical application by managing live teams of hazmat technicians in full-scale rail and highway scenarios. This is far from your typical ICS forms class.
