Workshops that stick when it matters most.
Hands-on, plain-language training to help communities, councils, and businesses get ready, act fast, and recover strong — without the overwhelm.
Not all training is created equal.
Disaster Scout workshops are designed to be practical, engaging, and immediately useful — no jargon, no “tick-the-box” sessions, and we don’t do ‘death by PowerPoint’ around here.
We tailor every workshop to your local hazards, resources, and community needs so people leave knowing exactly what to do before, during, and after a disaster.

Plain-Language Warnings that Move People to Act (PIO/Comms Training)
