Yes. All elected and/or appointed officials directly involved in emergency operations should successfully complete IS-700 NIMS: An Introduction, ICS-100 and ICS-200. Otherwise, at the minimum, local chief elected and appointed officials should complete IS-700. These courses are available at training.fema.gov/emiweb/IS/crslist.asp.
