Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training prepares local
residents to help themselves, their families and neighbors in the
event of a disaster. The training covers basic skills that are
important to know in a disaster when emergency services may not be
available. CERT members receive training in earthquake awareness,
disaster fire suppression techniques, disaster medical operations, and
light search and rescue, as well as team organization and
management.
The CERT Class Series consists of 5 evenings (Tuesday & Thursdays from
6:30-9:30pm) and one Saturday (Field Day from 1:00-5:00pm). ATTENDANCE
AT ALL 6 DATES IS REQUIRED FOR CERTIFICATION.
All evening CERT classes are held in the auditorium at the Police/Fire
Administration Building at 1000 Villa Street in Mountain View. The
