Self-study, self-paced
 Experience has taught us that presenting
the information to you in the Spring, and
then expecting you to remember the
instruction 3 or 4 months later during an
event, was not effective.
 By presenting the information as a selfstudy course, you can learn at your own
pace, and easily review the material
throughout the hurricane season.

Annex
The ESF 6 CEMP Annex describes “the framework through which a jurisdiction’s departments
and agencies, the private sector, not-for-profit and voluntary organizations, and other NGOs
coordinate and execute the common emergency management strategies. The actions
described in the Support Annexes apply to nearly every type of emergency. Each Support
Annex identifies a coordinating agency and cooperating agencies. In some instances, two
departments or agencies share coordinating agency responsibilities.” Source: CPG 101
