MRC Training

The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) Training Plan is a suggested guide for training MRC Volunteers at the local level. It presents a “menu” of options to guide MRC Unit leaders and volunteers with trainings that align with the Competencies for Disaster Medicine and Public Health (DMPH). The DMPH Competencies represent the baseline level of knowledge and skills that all MRC volunteers should have, regardless of their roles within the MRC unit. Because the DMPH competencies only establish a minimum standard, units may choose to expand on the competencies in order to train volunteers at a more advanced level.
