The Piedmont Triad Regional Council (PTRC), in partnership with the North Carolina Association of Regional Councils of Government (NCARCOG), is excited to announce a six-hour eLearning course designed to equip local communities with the knowledge and tools to prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies and disasters. Each user license provides individual access to the course for one learner through June 2026. The course can be taken at the user’s pace and includes learning activities, assessments, and a certificate upon successful completion of the course. 

Specifically, the training covers how to:

• Secure disaster recovery funds to ensure local governments address local and regional priorities
• Build and maintain necessary financial systems and staff support to administer and efficiently report disaster recovery funds utilization
