90-Minute Recording of Audio Online Seminar • Originally Broadcast April 14, 2009 • $249

Increasing incidents of campus violence.
The ongoing threat of natural disasters.
The heightened liability associated with institutional events.

These are just some of the factors underscoring the critical need for having and continually assessing a campus emergency management plan.

A sound campus emergency management plan, with components that include policies and procedures, team selection and training, communication, emergency notification systems and plan assessment, can make the crucial difference between responding successfully or unsuccessfully to an emergency.

If you are interested in learning how to help your institution respond to and manage emergencies more effectively, you won’t want to miss this seminar.

Led by Dr. William Kibler and Maureen Connolly, Challenges in Creating and Assessing Campus Emergency Plans provides an overall framework for developing and evaluating a campus emergency management plan. It also addresses the major challenges faced by higher education institutions today in creating and assessing campus emergency management plans.

Dr. Kibler serves as the Vice President for Student Affairs and Professor of Counselor Education at Mississippi State University. He has more than 30 years of experience in student affairs administration and oversees the University Crisis Action Team and the Incident Command Center. Connolly has more than 16 years of experience in higher education administration with research expertise in emergency and crisis management in K-20 schools.
