The National Registry of Certified EmComm Volunteers (NRCEV),  with support from KY ARES and others,  has created the EmComm eUniversity  . The EmComm eUniversity has been established to offer a common location where EmComm volunteers can easily locate training on the web, and where developers of Emergency Communications training materials will have a platform on which to effectively provide and manage their material.  

The EmComm eUniversity is a Learning Management System (or LMS).  A LMS is a software package that enables the management and delivery of learning content and resources to students. Most LMSs are web-based to facilitate "anytime, anywhere" access to learning content and administration.  At a minimum, a LMS usually allows for student registration, the delivery and tracking of e-learning, courses and content, and testing.

Access and use of the EmComm eUniversity is totally free, to both users and content providers. 

Here is a list of the initial courses that will be offered on the EmComm eUniversity:

• Kentucky ARES EmComm Training Course - Full Credit will be give by KY ARES for those that complete this course
• NIMS Basic - FEMA training material that will help individuals better understand NIMS and prepare for the FEMA NIMS Independent Study tests

Future courses will include:

• NRCEV Certification Exams - individuals will be able to take these exams to "test out" of the amateur radio requirements for NRCEV Certification
• Colorado ARES Basic, NCS and EC courses. - Developed by Pat Lambert, W0IPL
• NVIS Course
• and others
