SUMMARY:AI Horizons Conference
DESCRIPTION:Nearly every company is using AI. Yet few have integrated it enterprise-wide\, and fewer still report meaningful ROI. The real gap is between teams experimenting with prompts – and those embedding AI into workflows\, dashboards and executive decisions. \nAI Horizons 2026 – powered by Ragan’s Center for AI Strategy (CAIS) – is where that gap closes. You’ll move beyond experimentation to operationalize AI by connecting copilots\, agentic tools and analytics into one strategic approach that drives measurable gains in revenue\, reputation and risk mitigation. Join us for the clarity\, confidence and plan you need to stop watching change – and start shaping it.

SUMMARY:FEMA E/L0388 Advanced Public Information Officer
DESCRIPTION:The National Response Framework (NRF) and the National Incident Management System (NIMS) devote significant attention to the importance of emergency public information. Public Information Officers are key members of the ICS and EOC organizations\, and work closely with officials who are part of Multiagency Coordination Groups. PIOs advise the Incident Commander\, Unified Command\, and EOC director on public information relating to incident management. \nWith public information included as a function within NIMS and within ICS\, it is critical to address and provide training for this important element of Emergency Management. \nThe National Disaster & Emergency Management University (NDEMU) Public Information Officer (PIO) training curriculum includes courses delivered at the awareness\, basic\, advanced and master levels. The basic level course was developed by NDEMU and is managed by NDEMU or state emergency management trainers who teach basic skills and techniques for use during small\, localized\, single-agency responses; preparedness campaigns; and escalating localized responses. \nThe advanced level course teaches participants additional skills for use during escalating incidents\, including strategic communications and incident action planning as it relates to Joint Information Center (JIC) operations.
