2006 Aviation Disaster Response & Family Assistance Workshop
A special 2-day workshop for airline, airport and other transportation & emergency response professionals
Join us for an interactive two-day program on aviation disaster response and family assistance, which will provide you with practical, hands on information to help you better understand the overall process of responding to aviation disasters in your local community as well as how to provide the best possible support to passenger survivors, families and employees. This workshop will also highlight the differences in responding to commercial airline accidents versus corporate and general aviation accidents. While this workshop focuses on air disaster, the concepts and models used in supporting survivors apply to all types of mass casualty disasters.
Workshop Schedule
Additional InformationBoth days will include actual examples from recent accidents, videos and ample group interaction. You may also meet real survivors who may join us during the program.
