This course is based on the 'Emergency Telecommunications Table-Top Simulation Guide' developed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and Emergency Telecommunications Cluster (ETC) which is available on the ITU website and referenced throughout the course. Emergency Telecommunications simulation exercises are coordinated at a national level between different stakeholders, you can find examples of past events here.
It will take approximately 2 hours to complete all five modules.
Target Audience
Target audience: This e-learning course has been developed to assist Member states and stakeholders working on disaster management and disaster risk reduction at a national level to plan, design, and conduct table-top simulation exercises.
Learning Objectives
The objective of this e-learning course is to increase the understanding of table-top simulation exercises that test ICT capacity and capability in a scenario to uncover best practices and fix gaps so participants are able to respond better to a real disaster event.
