CCFD CERT Basic Training Fall 2026 Session

CERT training educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their area, and trains them in basic disaster response skills with hands-on practice. Using the training learned, CERT members can assist others following an event when professional responders are not immediately available.

You will learn how to:

• Prepare for disasters & emergencies
• Assist people who are injured
• Extinguish small fires
• Conduct light search & rescue
• Identify & anticipate hazards
• Organize volunteers & work as a team
• ... and much more!

“Neighbors Helping Neighbors Doing the Greatest Good for the Greatest Number!”
