To prepare for the complex demands of the 2026 response season, we are launching an integrated online training initiative that bridges the gap between technical communication and frontline support. This curriculum empowers members to master the ARRL EC-001 Introduction to Emergency Communications, alongside critical DHS/FEMA modules including IS-100, 200, 700, and 800, ensuring we remain seamlessly compatible with the Incident Command System (ICS) used by federal and local agencies. Recognizing our vital role in hospital and field-site support, the program now includes medical emergency awareness and basic first-receiver integration training, enabling you to function effectively at medical aid stations or during large-scale drills.
Welcome to the ARES Comprehensive Training Portal, your 2026 gateway to mastering the multi-disciplinary skills required for modern emergency response. This site integrates core ARRL Emergency Communications curriculum with advanced DHS/CISA resources, including Auxiliary Communications (AUXCOMM) and infrastructure security modules, to ensure our members are prepared for complex all-hazards environments. Recognizing the critical need for medical integration, we have included medical emergency awareness and hospital-support protocols to equip you for duties at triage sites and public health field operations. Beyond these pillars, you will find "Other" essential electives—ranging from FEMA NIMS certifications to specialized digital messaging workshops—all designed to help you complete your ARES Standardized Training Task Book and maintain our status as a premier professional-grade volunteer service.
