WebEOC Training

Johnson County Emergency Management and Homeland Security (JCEMHS) offers WebEOC training to Johnson County WebEOC users in a variety of ways:

Organizational Training: JCEMHS provides specialized WebEOC training to jurisdictions, organizations, disciplines, or other groups that would benefit from training together. While the training will be tailored for the specific group being trained, the course will go over the same elements covered in the general Basic User Training (described below). It is recommended that group's WebEOC coordinator and JCEMHS meet prior to the training to ensure WebEOC is structured appropriately for the training. This training can be set up in the Johnson County IT Training Room (accommodating 12 computer users) or on other locations as desired/available. To schedule this training contact Matt May at 913-715-1002 or mmay@jocogov.org.

Basic User Training: JCEMHS offers a two to three hour basic user training for WebEOC users in Johnson County. This course is for individuals that have not received WebEOC training in the past or simply need a refresher. The course covers the following components:

• Overview of WebEOC
• Overview of how WebEOC is used in the County, the region, and the State
• Roles and Responsibilities in WebEOC
• Logging into WebEOC
• The WebEOC Menu
• WebEOC Boards
• WebEOC Plug-ins

These classes are primarily taught in the Johnson County Emergency Operations Center in the lower level of the JC Administration Building at 111 S. Cherry Street in Olathe (Suite 100 on the lower level). However, due to renovations some of the courses have been moved to the Johnson County Conference Center -- Room 205.  Each class is limited to 12 participants, so register early.

Independent Training: Throughout 2011 & 2012 JCEMHS will be developing training documents, quick references, and other training tools to assist WebEOC users in utilizing the software to its fullest potential. One component of this development will be the creation of WebEOC Demos (specific to Johnson County) similar to the one created recently to help users understand how to log on to the system.
