LSU Alexandria was proud to host the FEMA/GOHSEP Intermediate Incident Command System (ICS-300) course on November 9–10, 2026.

Over the two-day training, LSUA Disaster Science and Emergency Management students joined professionals from fire services, law enforcement, public health, emergency management, and other agencies to strengthen their knowledge of incident management, operational planning, and coordination during complex emergencies.

The course provided an excellent opportunity for hands-on learning, group exercises, and collaboration. It was especially rewarding to see our LSUA students learning alongside experienced public safety professionals, building relationships, and gaining practical knowledge they can carry into their future careers.

A special thank you to the Louisiana Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP), our instructors, and all the participants who made this training a success!

At LSU Alexandria, our Disaster Science and Emergency Management program is committed to providing students with opportunities to connect classroom education with real-world training while supporting the professional development of those who serve our communities.
