MESSAGE REGARDING INSTRUCTOR LED COURSES:
Homeland Security and Emergency Management continues to monitor guidance from the State of MN Department of Health and Center for Disease Control (CDC) as it relates to the COVID-19 pandemic. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, the HSEM Training Staff is in the process of redeveloping the instructor led courses to be given virtually.
