ALL current badges will expire at the end of 2010, regardless of when you took the training. As of January 1, 2011, every DR volunteers will be required to have a background check. Also, a new fee has been put in place. It will now cost $36.00 for a 3 year badge. You are still required to complete Introduction to Disaster every 3 years. I will not attempt to put all of the details in this email. There will be a Training session held Saturday, May 15th (place and time TBD) to help us transition into this new credentialing process. At that time we will make available all new forms required if you want to continue in DR. Also, there will be an article in the next Association newsletter on this. The $36.00 fee will cover the cost of the background check, a new hat and a DR pin.
If you have any questions, please call me.
