CFM Training – Wednesday, October 21, 2009

An all-day Certified Floodplain Manager (CFM) training course, The NFIP: An Overview will be held on Wednesday, October 21, 2009, from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm, at Michael Baker Jr., Inc., 1304 Concourse Drive, Suite 200, Linthicum, MD 21090-1014.

This course is a good refresher course even for current CFMs, who can claim six pre-approved Continuing Education Credits from the Association of State Floodplain Managers (ASFPM) for attendance. For attendees who are not yet CFMs, this is a great refresher course but will not take the place of intensive study. Prior to this training, we recommend that you read the manual, Floodplain Management Requirements: A Study Guide and Desk Reference for Local Officials (FEMA 480), available for download at http://www.floods.org/Certification/FEMA_480.asp. This manual is lengthy - so please give yourself some time to prepare!
