On-Site E-Plan Training Program

The E-Plan trainers have conducted on-site E-Plan training to train trainers who in turn will train front-line personnel to use E-Planfor quick, reliable, online and comprehensive access to response-related data such as Tier II data, Risk Management Plans, Chemical Databases, MSDS, maps, and Emergency Contact information of personnel directly responsible.

Online E-Plan Training

The Emergency Preparedness Center (EPC) designed, developed and implemented the web-based training module, which allows new E-Plan users to learn how to use E-Plan in a simple, step-by-step manner at their own pace on their own computer. The training module provides a series of screen shots and explanatory text that demonstrates how the new user can register online and the various capabilities of the E-Plan system in parallel with the actual online Demo Site. The E-Plan system is easy to use so that training should take no more than one hour and often less time than that.
