AHIMT – Supply Unit Leaders L-970 Length: 32 hours Outline: The purpose of this professional development course, E-970 Supply Unit Leader (SPUL), is to provide local and State-level emergency responders with an overview of key duties and responsibilities of a Supply Unit Leader Type III in a Type III All Hazards Incident Management Team (AHIMT). By requiring participants to bring jurisdiction-specific information to the instruction, the course provides a realistic, hands-on approach to mastering the skills of an SPUL organized by the fundamental steps of the ordering process. Participants identify information required for ordering, as well as complete required forms and documentation related to ordering, and anticipate ordering and supply needs for the incident. In addition to the ordering process, the course discusses mobilization, setting up and managing the Supply Unit, and demobilization. The intended audiences are local- or state-level emergency responders who may be designated as Supply Unit Leader on their local or state Incident Management Team (IMT). The materials were developed with the assumption that audience members may have little or no actual experience as a member of an All Hazards Incident Management Team (AHIMT). The audience may include participants from a variety of agencies and functional disciplines, including fire service, law enforcement, emergency management, public works departments, as well as public health organizations, medical emergency teams, and hospitals.
