CERT Training - 2023
Huntsville Town is working to further improve our Self Reliance, Preparedness, and Readiness for Disasters and Emergency Situations on both an individual and community level. The more prepared we are for challenging situations the more we can save lives and property. One of the ways to do this is through Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT). CERT is primarily a training that teaches you basic disaster response skills to empower you to help yourself and those around you when disaster strikes and no professionals are coming to help. We encourage everyone to take advantage of this training.
The training is two-fold; on-line and in-person. On-line training will focus on knowledge base information while the in-class hands-on portion will focus on actually learning and doing the skills, not classroom lecture. It is very important that you complete the online portion before attending the in-class portion.
The in-class portion will be April 20th through May 11th. An informational flyer can be found here and has been sent out in a town email:

There is a $35 dollar fee for the in-class portion of the training which goes toward equipment given to you.
