Description
The UCPM Deployable Training aims to strengthen the competences of civil protection experts and staff from modules and response capacities across EU Member States and UCPM Participating States. It complements the national training provided by countries and organisations, helping to improve the overall European response capacity and better prepare for emergencies.
The Deployable Training programme includes a range of courses designed for different target groups involved with international UCPM missions. These include experts from the European Union Civil Protection Team (EUCPT), members of the Technical Assistance and Support Team (TAST), technical experts, key personnel from modules and other response capacities, and the European Commission - DG ECHO staff (ERCC Liaison Officers).
The programme offers introductory, advanced and specialised training through eight online and blended-learning courses currently available.
