Building Resiliency: Virtual Joint Information System Methodology & Practice

There is no community resiliency without communication resiliency, and effective communication requires resiliency – especially during the current environment when operations are largely virtual. This Virtual Joint Information System Methodology and Practice is a three-hour workshop that offers practical solutions for crisis communications during threats and incidents that build relationships, enhance internal and external communications, streamline information coordination and approval processes, enhance the information management cycle, and build resiliency for the virtual Joint Information System/Joint Information Center.

Building resiliency is key for effective preparedness, and communications resiliency is a crucial component of an organization’s success.
