Non-accredited Training Courses
Introduction to Incident Management Course
The Introduction to Incident Management Course is a one day introductory and awareness course designed for professionals who have minimal or no prior experience within emergency and incident management. Participants will be introduced to underpinning principles, processes and functions of incident control systems, including AIIMS (Australasian Inter-Service Incident Management System). The course is ideal for those who provide a support capacity to those who undertake specific roles within incidents. The course is led by a facilitator in a workshop style and includes theory, use of case studies, group work and activities. There are no pre-requisites for this course.
This course is not nationally accredited training. It is suitable for individuals and organisations who do not require accredited training, formal assessments or a certificate for Statement of Attainment. Participants will receive a Certificate of Attendance. It is a cost-effective but valuable alternative to accredited training courses in emergency and incident management.

Introduction to AIIMS (online)
The Introduction to AIIMS is a basic online course which takes around 2 hours to complete on the AFAC Online Training platform, and can be done in your own time 24/7. It is designed for professionals who have no prior knowledge and skills about the AIIMS structure. It is particularly useful for those who need to be familiar with AIIMS such as admin staff, contractors, volunteers, new graduates and/or personnel who may provide minimal support to the Incident Management Team. It comprises 6 sessions:
Session 1 - Course Introduction
Session 2 - Incident Command and Incident Management Teams
Session 3 - Incident Planning and the Incident Controller
Session 4 - Planning, Intelligence and Public Information
Session 5 - Operations, Investigation, Logistics and Finance
Session 6 - Where to from here?
There are no pre-requisites for this course. There are no formal assessments and therefore this is not an accredited course, but it is a very cost-effective and valuable alternative to accredited training courses in AIIMS. It is suitable for individuals and organisations who do not require accredited training, formal assessments or a certificate for Statement of Attainment. Participants will receive a Certificate of Completion. Please note this course is not suitable for those who act within Incident Management Teams, or play a part in supporting the Incident Management Teams, as the information presented in the online course is very basic.

Level 1 and Level 2 Incident Management and Incident Controller Training Courses (non-accredited versions)
Any of our nationally recognised training courses can be adapted into a non-accredited version. Requests for non-accredited versions of our Level 1 (one day course) and Level 2 Incident Management Courses (3 day course) are popular. The Incident Controller Training course can also be delivered over 1-2 days depending on whether an exercise scenario is included in the training. This means shorter training days, no formal assessments are required, no formal enrolment processes are required and also a much more cost-effective option is provided. Non-accredited training courses are suitable for those organisations where:
