Emergency Management in The Education Field

Hello, My husband is starting to explore this option. He is a certified teacher who would like to have an additional credential in his current setting to enhance his duties. He has a double BA, Grad Cert in Education from NJ City University and numerous FEMA Credits. All suggestions welcome and appreciated. Thanks. Hille

 

Have him look at American Military University. They just might have a program that will suit his interests.

 

Two picks,

1st ETSC
2nd Leicester (UK)
