ICS-300: Intermediate ICS for Expanding Incidents (May 10-12, 2022)

This course provides training for personnel who require advanced application of the Incident Command System (ICS). This course expands upon information covered in the ICS 100 and ICS 200 courses.

NOTE: This May 2022 class will *only* be meeting in-person. Our October 2022 class will be via remote-access (Zoom).

Mask policy (4/22): Masks are now *optional* in all of our settings. King County supports anyone who wants to wear a face mask at this event. We will also have a ‘Mask-Only’ room that looks out onto the main classroom through glass windows and has microphones, speakers and large monitors that are also connected to the main room. This Mask-Only room is -optional- and you are welcome to sit in either the main classroom *or* the Mask-Only room if you are wearing a mask.

Intended Audience

This course is open to staff from cities, tribes, counties, state, and federal agencies, special purpose districts, and their private and non-profit partners.
