MGT-440: Enhanced Sports and Special Events Incident Management
The Enhanced Sports and Special Events Incident Management course is a scenario-based
practicum of three primary areas within the field of sports and special events management: a)
incident management, b) crowd and evacuation management; and c) crisis information
management. The course is intended to prepare emergency responders as well as event
management personnel, concessionaries, athletic department personnel, and elected and chief
executives who would be involved in the preparation for and response to a large-scale incident
during sporting or special events. There are three rigorous, simulation-supported, scenario-based emergency response activities designed to hone both individual and team building decision making and incident management skills in the context of sports and special events operations.
