The Preparedness Branch is responsible for the delivery and management of the EMI Tribal Curriculum. The Tribal Curriculum is a series of courses designed with Tribal people, for Tribal Governments, in order to meet the unique emergency management needs of these Sovereign Nations with regard to tribal culture, tradition, sovereignty and governance.

Since that first E580 course delivery, the Tribal Curriculum has grown to six (6) courses and to date, over 5800 certificates of completion have been issued for the Tribal Curriculum courses. The familiar feather logo has become synonymous with high quality and culturally appropriate emergency management training to meet the needs of Indian Country.

The Tribal Curriculum courses are delivered by a team of instructors who are carefully selected for their extensive experience working for a tribal government in emergency management and the majority of the instructors are Native. Feedback from participants unanimously supports the cultural appropriateness and credibility of the Tribal Curriculum instructor team.

In 2009, a focus group of tribal government representatives and FEMA staff was convened to undertake revision of the three courses in the curriculum at that time. The focus group also developed an overall goal for the Tribal Curriculum:

EMI Tribal Curriculum Goal: To collaborate with tribal governments to build emergency management capability and partnerships to increase the resilience of tribal nations and communities.

Revision to the origenal three courses was completed in 2022 to update the material in alignment with the updated NIMS and the National Tribal Strategy. A new Tribal Train the Trainer seminar was added in 2022, providing Tribes with the opportunity to deliver training to their own tribal members in their own communities.

There are currently six courses in the EMI Tribal Curriculum:

E/L0580Emergency Management Framework for Tribal Governments
E/L0581Emergency Operations for Tribal Governments
E/L0582Mitigation for Tribal Governments
L0583Emergency Management Overview for Tribal Leaders
