COMMENTS

"THANK YOU for the information and support you have provided over the years!"


"Great info from Doc about these critical updates and improvements to NIMS and the CPGs. We all appreciate the openness and transparency in this process. As an aside - Very sad to see EMForum shutting down.  I manage to get onto a few forums a year and they are always valuable.  Thank you for all your hard work!  "

"Thank you Doc for providing updated information. Unfortunately we'll never know how successful your efforts will be as EMForum won't he here to report on them. This is their last day. Thank you EMFoum for your many years of loyal and faithful service in Emergency Management. EMForum will be missed. God bless Amy and Avagene. Job well done!"
Isabel McCurdy


"Good overview."


"Hearing what is coming from FEMA in the future is enlightening and helps prepare for future efforts."


"Mr. Lumpkins was very informative and the information was current and valid."
Isabel McCurdy


"I'm not sure why EMForum is going away, but I have always come away with something very useful.  These webinars are a great tool to reach the EM community and they will be sorely missed."
