Evaluation of Emergency Management Programs

Analyze the following areas of emergency management from the perspective of what emergency management could expect for the future: First, discuss what we should focus on for future emergency management topics or focus on in reference to emergency management systems (for example, future vulnerabilities, community designs, and emergency management qualifications). Then talk about how we can evaluate our performance and programs to address this future aspect. Your analysis should include a specific discussion of the issues that our readings highlighted this week and last, in addition to tying in the idea discussed in past units regarding the collaborative efforts used within emergency management. Finally, consider the influence that research findings have on practical applications in the field of emergency management. That is, consider how your future projections may impact the process, policy, and decision making that could occur within the field.
