Welcome to the website for the Information Management e-learning Course. Provided on behalf of the National Steering Group for Emergency Management.

This website provides the platform for members of the Principle Response Agencies (PRA's) to learn or refresh their skills in the area of Information Management under the Framework for Major Emergency Management in Ireland.

Those who manage emergencies often have to make crucial decisions quickly and with limited information. For this reason, the quality of the information placed before emergency decision-makers is often a critical success factor. An emergency information management system must, therefore, present decision-makers with information processed from the available data, in a timely way, as a sound basis for decision-making.
