Campus Preparedness Campus Preparedness

Campus Preparedness

Preparing a safe and secure Frederick Community College (FCC) campus is a responsibility shared by all of us.  Your daily actions to prepare and prevent harm make a difference in the environment in which we learn and work. 
 
The FCC Public Safety and Mid-Atlantic Center for Emergency Management & Public Safety unite to offer a campus preparedness series. This series features current information to improve your situational awareness, knowledge of emergency actions, techniques for lab safety, and strategies to prevent vehicular accidents.  Each 20-minute segment builds your knowledge in key preparedness and prevention areas. 

Invest in yourself, your campus, and your community and become a part of the FCC preparedness approach!   
 
The FCC Preparedness series was made possible through the Higher Education Emergency Relief (HEERF) and the contributions of the FCC Public Safety and Mid-Atlantic Center for Emergency Management & Public Safety team members.
