Are you prepared for an emergency in your home, workplace or community?
This week we launched our brand new eLearning course to empower you with the essentials of emergency preparedness. The course is part of Ready Calgary, a community preparedness program developed by the Calgary Emergency Management Agency (CEMA) for the citizens of Calgary. The program is designed to inform, educate and build resiliency to the impacts of emergencies.
The eLearning course takes approximately 30 minutes to complete and can be paused as needed.
