25.01.2022 The INSARAG Training Working Group have met in Liverpool, England this week. The group has been working on development of the upcoming IEC/R Team Leaders and Mentor course. The team members have returned home and are working towards the next update at the 2018 Team Leaders Meeting in Romania.

23.01.2022 Just left the UNDAC refresher in Philippines and there are more UNDAC members interested in INSARAG training and aware of the need for a USAR Cell in the OSOCC. Its more evident than ever that the gap between UNDAC and INSARAG is narrowing. I strongly believe that the UNDAC course needs to focus more on INSARAG and the International USAR response.

15.01.2022 INSARAG IEC/R Team Leaders, Mentors and Secretariat Representative Training was conducted at the Sultanate of Oman Public Authority for Civil Defense and Ambulance (PACDA) in Muscat, Oman from 10 -13 February 2020. The Training Working Group (TWG) together with representatives from Team Leaders, Information Management Working Group (IMWG), Light Team Working Group (LTWG) and Medical Working Group (MWG), prepared the course throughout 2019. The revised training now includes the recent changes. The 18 participants from 12 countries and OCHA shared their experience in IEC/Rs, and mutually learned to take leadership roles in the classification system.
