The profession of Emergency Management isn't always recognized the same way around the globe, neither is Emergency Management certification. I speak with Officer Russell Dippy, the Emergency Management Coordinator for the South Australia Police about the state of Emergency Management in Australia. We'll define the differences between Incident Management, Emergency Management, and Disaster Management, and Russell will also talk to us about the differences between a a Profession, Professional, and Professionalism. I'll also talk to Russell about Emergency Management certifications; their significance, how to obtain certifications, and the the key certifications recognized in Australia. Russell will also touch on the challenge of having Emergency Management recognized as a profession in the land of Oz. A very interesting chat, so don't miss it.
