Management System (NIMS), An Introduction
On February 28, 2003, President Bush issued Homeland
Security Presidential Directive-5. HSPD-5 directed
the Secretary of Homeland Security to develop and
administer a National Incident Management System (NIMS).
NIMS provides a consistent nationwide template to
enable all government, private-sector, and
nongovernmental organizations to work together
during domestic incidents. You can also find
information about NIMS at

This course introduces NIMS and takes approximately
three hours to complete. It explains the purpose,
principles, key components and benefits of NIMS. The
course also contains "Planning Activity" screens
giving you an opportunity to complete some planning
tasks during this course. The planning activity
screens are printable so that you can use them after
you complete the course. |
