- thaumaturgy 7y agoIn all seriousness, the FEMA ICS 100 and 200 courses: 100: https://training.fema.gov/is/courseoverview.aspx?code=IS-100.c https://training.fema.gov/is/courseoverview.aspx?code=IS-100... 200: https://training.fema.gov/is/courseoverview.aspx?code=IS-200.c https://training.fema.gov/is/courseoverview.aspx?code=IS-200... They are both available online for free and you download a little certificate afterward. ICS is the Incident Command System used by law, fire, and other agencies to manage "incidents" -- anything from, "my kid just disappeared from my front yard" to "the entire town of Paradise just burned to the ground, now what do we do?" There are some principles in ICS that any technical manager should find helpful. Someday I'd like to write a long article on what technical managers can learn from ICS, but in the meantime I'm happy to suggest other people just take the first two courses.
