National Emergency Response Information System (NERIS) Training
Josh Fulbright & Derek Allmond
Thursday, June 12, 2025
2:00 PM – 3:30 PM
In June 2025, after decades of use, the State of South Carolina will onboard and transition to NERIS (National Emergency Response Information System) from NFIRS (National Fire Incident Reporting System). Training will provide up-to-date information on statewide on-boarding, information to secure your NFIRS data, and how the new system will work in your department depending on your use or non-use of a third-party software vendor. Engage support from your State NERIS Lead, Community Risk Reduction Chief, and other CRR Team Members to learn how this change will impact your department.
