Sorry to butt into the conversation, but I saw that Life Long Learning has the Level 1 - Professional Continuity Practitioner designation. I saw an emergency management job ad a few months ago that asked for the COOP certification. That's just the Continuity of Operations series that are available at two levels. It looks like Level 1 can be done completely online.
I don't know if the Louisiana State Guard is still active. I can't find anything about it on their state military department website. If they are still active, that's a way to get the Military Emergency Management Specialist (MEMS) training. It's also a way to gain emergency management experience part-time. You said you had a bad experience with the American Red Cross. Have you looked into joining the Civil Air Patrol? I would recommend a state defense force over them, but they are an option if the Louisiana State Guard isn't active.
