If this is all that our emergency officials need to pass to be certified in a particular area (and I hope it isn't), that's pretty sad. It's no wonder that we have issues responding to disasters. :-PBelieve it or not even the knowledge one might gain from reading through the documents to get the right answer to the final exam could be very helpful. I live in South Florida, and as you all know we get those lovely hurricanes every year. Any business needs risk management for these emergency types of situations. I worked for BCBSFL and we certainly had emergency protocols. Since I'm pursuing a business degree, it would be nice to have an extra little notch under my belt that shows I have this type of background. Even an official certification of some sort wouldn't hurt, ya know.
