This four-day training course includes thirty-two (32) hours of instruction exceeding the N.O.A.A. and U.S. E.P.A. course criteria guidelines. Two instructors share experience gained through years of actual field use.

The course is a comprehensive learning experience covering CAMEO (Computer-Aided Management of Emergency Operations), ALOHA, and MARPLOT. Mapping strategies, input techniques and other topics will be covered as time permits.

Each student will utilize a computer and the first day include basic computer instruction. Prior experience is helpful, but not required. The final exercise will allow the student to complete a CAMEO scenario simulation. Upon successful completion each attendee will receive a certificate.

This course will be presented in its entirety, as was originally intended and without compromise. The CAMEO Mac or CAMEO DOS course actually costs less than the two-day refreshers offered by others. Low-cost computer rental is available.

CAMEO Mac and CAMEO DOS refresher classes are available in both 4- and 8-hour formats. Annual refreshers include program updates, exercises and hands-on scenarios.
