The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) standard forms will be discussed in detail. Windshield surveys, on-the-ground surveys, posting procedures, types of damage, and maintaining the safety of the field inspectors are some of the subjects to be covered. Finally, even human factors such as dealing with the owners of damaged property and coping with the stress of performing damage assessment following a catastrophic event will be discussed.

Fresh Perspectives

                      4 hours/.4 CEU's                       Instructor: Steve Uman
                      Fee: $75.00                               Location: West Palm Beach

After a few years on the job, we all tend to operate on automatic. We repeatedly address the same issues the same way, talk to people the same way, and handle the same situations the same way. We become stale. We rationalize and justify our actions by saying, "we do it that way because we've always done it that way." To think. We are all faced with future budget constraints; maybe there actually are ways we can cut back. We all deal with many of the same issues; maybe there are alternative ways of dealing with them. By attending this class we hopefully will think a little differently about the job we do, how we do it, and how we can improve it.
