Logic Model

If TEMA invests in the training program with the implementation of a Learning Management System that increases training participation across the State and makes it easier to identify training needs based on a region’s capability gap, then we can close those gaps by increasing participant knowledge, skill, and ability to effectively prepare for, mitigate, respond to, manage, and recover from disasters or emergencies.
