Campus Emergency Response Team (CERT)

CERT is a critical program in the effort to engage everyone at 麻豆传媒社区 in making their communities safer, more prepared, and more resilient when incidents occur.  CERT is a nationwide training program supported by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.  KSU鈥檚 Department of Public Safety and the Office of Emergency Management actively supports the expansion of CERT training at both the 麻豆传媒社区 and Marietta Campuses. 麻豆传媒社区 is one of only three universities in the State of Georgia to have a federally-recognized CERT team.

CERT training consists of a 21 hour training course than can be taken through the Center for University Learning here at 麻豆传媒社区.  This training is open to students, faculty, and staff as well as others from the surrounding community.  Courses are taught each semester on campus by the Office of Emergency Management and supporting personnel and agencies.
