Topic: Designing, Developing, and Implementing State-Level Emergency Management and Homeland Security Education and Training Programs: Standards, Curriculum, Content, and Professional Development Description: The purpose of this panel presentation is to discuss “best practices” relating to the design, development, and implementation of Emergency Management and Homeland Security Education and Training programs and strategic framework throughout all levels of education (K–12 and post-secondary) at the State level. The panel will discuss the development of this “vertical-track” architecture design currently in progress in California and its implications for critical issues like building and facilitating collaborative linkages within the academic and professional EM-HS communities, accreditation and standards, model curriculum, enhancing professional experience and opportunities, and related issues. These important points speak to the direction and a view of the future of integrated and networked national and State Emergency Management and Homeland Security education and training programs.

Assistant Professor Austin Peay State University Clarksville, TN 3:00–5:00 2nd Round of Thursday, June 7th Afternoon Breakout Sessions (Continued) Topic: Job Searching in Emergency Management Description: This study works to examine current trends in job searching within the Emergency Management field based on concerns over job availability and the value of formalized training and education within the field. Utilizing a basic content analysis on the available job data, the study will juxtapose the jobs available within the field and will work to surmise the implications this may have in the education and training of personnel; the posting of résumés; and the general expectations of professionalism within the field. The presentation of this study will allow for the open discussion of the value of certain types of programs and will provide a view of the skill sets and qualifications that students will require when they leave their institutions to begin their careers. In general, the study can also provide implications for résumé creation and job posting for all in the field. Presenters: Elizabeth Russell Faculty

General Lessons from Scenario Foresight of the Emerging European Union Homeland Security System and the Comprehensive Approach – New Roles for Higher Education Research and Teaching Description: The paper presents mid-term results of the European Union co-funded research project FOCUS (Foresight Security Scenarios: Mapping Research to a Comprehensive Approach to Exogenous EU Roles), placing them into a comprehensive context of future roles of Higher Education research and teaching in Homeland Security and Emergency Management. The European Union has now the legal power to “encourage cooperation between Member States in order to improve the effectiveness of systems for preventing and protecting against natural or man-made disasters.” This includes preparing civil-protection personnel, promoting effective operational cooperation between national civil-protection services, and promoting “consistency in international civil-protection work.” FOCUS has the mission to propose future tracks of civil security research and emergency management research in order to support a comprehensive approach to future European homeland security, including exchange and cooperation with key players beyond the EU.
