Ok, here are the course descriptions for the classes from AMU
HLSS213 - Weapons of Mass Destruction Incident Command
This course is a study of the Incident Command System (ICS) as it applies to a WMD response. Students will be provided with knowledge of the ICS and case scenarios of its use in a variety of settings. The course includes a scenario-driven exercise in which students must ârespondâ through the ICS command and staffing process to a national event.
HLSS215 - Regulatory Issues in Weapons of Mass Destruction
This course focuses on the legal and regulatory issues associated with WMD response. Its topics include: associated public law, reporting authorities, jurisdictional and functional issues that govern organizational, technical, medical, scientific, moral/ethical issues, and, other aspects of response.
EDMG340 - Consequence Management
This course addresses the potential results from nuclear, biological, and chemical incidents or uses. Topics include public health consequences of such incidents, emergency planning and response measures in place among U.S. agencies, and emerging detection and management technologies. Existing vulnerabilities to these types of incidents and attacks will also be discussed. Objectives of the course include identification of the historical development and use of chemical and biological weapons; definition of the types of chemical and biological weapons and their impacts; analysis of case studies related to the development and use of chemical and biological weapons, and research on chemical and biological warfare.
I was thinking that HLSS 215 was sounding like HLS 410. What do you guys think?
I still owe AMU money so they won't send a transcript until I finish paying them off so I can't get these courses evaluated yet. Who should I contact at TESC if I'm not ready to be enrolled quite yet. I still want to finish working on my CLEPs that I need before I enroll.
