In-person Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) courses return for 2023 and will begin as early as next month! CERT is a program that teaches essential disaster management and response skills to prepare individual citizens and their families before a disaster strikes. The Department of Emergency Management sponsors the training and educates residents to ensure that the population has the best possible chance of surviving and recovering from a disaster. CERT-trained individuals can better assist their families, neighbors, and communities until first responders can reach affected areas after a disaster.
Training consists of 16 classroom hours and a 4-hour field exercise to test your skills. CERT training is a free community service by the City and County of Honolulu and the Department of Emergency Management.
