Training is the tipping point for effective response and recovery
Many organizations have invested significant time and money in planning but those plans may have very unrealistic assumptions, like relying on people to arrive or stay at work and operate at a reasonable productivity rate for a certain number of hours. Significant research indicates the following items will dramatically impact their performance and, therefore, an organization’s ability to respond and meet its recovery objectives:
- Perceived efficacy of individuals and their leaders to perform the response and recovery tasks required,
- Clarity of role,
- Perception of importance of role,
- Understanding of consequences of not performing tasks.
Our training is truly the tipping point between an effective response and recovery and one that simply cannot meet the recovery time objectives. XBRM Training and Education can improve your organization’s ability to respond to an incident or event by improving the effectiveness of your resources. In addition to standard curriculum, we also offer specialized training that improves a participant’s ability to accurately integrate critical human factors into policies, plans, procedures and exercises. The result is to more effectively reflect and mitigate the impact that negative emotional and behavioral reactions will have on your response and recovery.
We offer a comprehensive curriculum of on-site or web-based instructor led training and web-based eLearning. Courses include workbooks, expert instruction and class certificates. Classes are organized into two basic categories: skill-building (targeted towards responders) and awareness (targeted towards management) training. Instructor led training is available in full-day or half-day versions. We can also provide custom versions of our curriculum that is tailored to meet your organization or group’s specific needs and objectives.

Efficacy of the individual and their perception of their management’s preparedness and efficacy is one of the most substantial factors driving an individual’s attitude and inclination to stay during the response and recovery.
