Registration Deadline: Registration and payment are due by Monday, January 13, 2020.

Additional Materials: Participants owning a laptop or WiFi-enabled tablet are encouraged to bring one, in order to efficiently process paperwork related to certification. Laptops and tablets are not required, but helpful. Participants must have an individual email account for personal use.

About the Class: Class instructors are Judy & Doug Lewis, from the California-Pacific Conference. Early Response Teams (ERTs) fill specific needs in the early days after a disaster, such as cleaning out flood-damaged homes, removing debris, placing tarps on homes and otherwise helping to prevent further damage, while providing a caring Christian presence. To be eligible for an ERT team, participants must take the 8 hour Basic Class ERT. After completion, participants will receive an ERT identification card (UMCOR badge), which is valid for three years. A Renewal Class of 4 hours is required every 3 years. A background check (conducted through UMCOR’s Sterling Volunteers program) is required in order to receive an ERT identification card and participate on a team.
