Delaware National Incident Management System Required Training
Federal National Incident Management System (NIMS) compliance requires a level of NIMS and ICS
training based upon an individual’s incident/event position. Each jurisdiction and agency is
responsible to determine the level of training that each of their personnel must reach. This will enable
each jurisdiction/agency to certify they have met the NIMS compliance training requirements and are
eligible for federal assistance and have “institutionalized the use of ICS”.
The State of Delaware developed the below template for guidance concerning who should receive
NIMS training and to what level. This template has been adopted by the state discipline leads and
agencies and reflects the minimum NIMS/ICS training requirements in Delaware. Private sector and
non-governmental organizations are also encouraged to use these standards.
