Course Descriptions

A day hardly goes by where we don鈥檛 hear about community emergencies. Fortunately, northern Illinois has been spared from recent local disasters but that may not always be the situation. Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training prepares you to know what to do for your family, neighbors and community in the event of natural and manmade disasters. The program concludes with a mock disaster. Successful completion earns you a FEMA Certificate. Participants may qualify to volunteer as a Palatine Emergency Management Agency member. Includes all materials.

Funding opportunities

CPE works with the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and the Paths to College and Career grant to offer scholarships for people who are underemployed, unemployed, incarcerated, and previously incarcerated.
