Overview
The NDPTC is a member of the National Domestic Preparedness Consortium (NDPC), which was expanded in 2007 to address all-hazards capabilities by the addition of the University of Hawai`i. The NDPTC is authorized to develop and deliver training and educational programs related to homeland security and disaster management, with a specific focus on natural hazards, coastal communities, and the special needs and opportunities of islands and territories. The NDPTC actively engages internally with FEMA and the University of Hawai`i, as well as with external partners across the region to integrate the delivery of its trainings, products, and services. On February 9, 2010, the NDPTC officially announced their opening with a special ceremony at the East-West Center at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. The ceremony was attended by more than 200 community leaders, emergency responders and educators.
