MGT-404: Sports and Special Events Incident Management (16.0 Hrs. )

This course develops athletic department staffs, facility management personnel, campus public safety personnel, emergency response supervisors, and others involved in sports/special event management to better manage incidents that could occur during an event. The course provides participants the skills necessary to effectively manage an incident by applying and implementing a multi-disciplinary management team approach as described in the National Incident Management System (NIMS).

The course has specific emphasis on the unique aspects of response to an incident occurring during a sports/special event, including considerations for business continuity and after action activities. The course concludes with a practical application, role-play exercise that can be customized to the facility in which the course is delivered. It provides specific emphasis on incident action planning and resource management processes.

This course represents a cooperative effort between The University of Southern Mississippi’s National Center for Spectator Sports Security and Safety (USM/NCS4) and the Texas Engineering Extension Service’s National Emergency Response and Rescue Training Center (TEEX/NERRTC), a member of The Texas A&M University System.
