Safety and security operations at a sporting event involves many complex interdependencies, stakeholders, and resources. As such, a sporting event requires an effective and trusted decision-making framework through a Command-and-Control structure implemented across all agencies to communicate, coordinate, collaborate and integrate. Without command and control, the event organisers simply cannot deliver a safe and secure sporting event.

The aim of the course ‘Command and Control’ is to help you face these increasing challenges and provide you with best practices in planning, developing, and implementing a command-and-control structure to make effective and trusted decisions when faced against business as usual, incidents and crises at a sporting event.

The course ‘Command and Control’ is delivered in an online virtual classroom environment using asynchronous learning strategies and technologies through the ICSS’s Learning Management System (LMS). You can complete the course on your own at your preferred pace and time of day which fits your schedule.

This course may include but is not limited to the following learning activities:

• Video Lectures
• Guest Lectures
• Readings
• Discussions
• Course Knowledge Evaluation

To successfully complete the course ‘Command and Control’, you must pass a Course Knowledge Evaluation, the purpose of which is to test your knowledge and understanding of the relevant course subject matter. This evaluation will consist of a series of multiple-choice questions. You must obtain a minimum passing grade of 75%.

This course has a standalone fee of $ 500.00 US Dollars.
