ARES Task Book Evaluators

ARES Training Taskbooks server as a training guide and mechanism to demonstrate your personal capabilities to respond during an emergency activation. The following individuals have been authorized to sign off on overall task book levels.  Individual county Emergency Coordinators or agency communications personnel may sign off on any task they have completed themselves as well as level 1, but the overall level II & III levels must be signed off by an authorized evaluator. If you haven’t already, you may download a copy of the task book here.

If you are near any of these evaluators, you can meet with them in person for your level II or III task book sign off. If not, you can work with them to scan & email a copy over for digital signatures. Please make sure that you have filled in your evaluator list as well as the worked incident list.
