<p style="text-align: center;">All members must go to the following links to complete <strong>ICS-100 and ICS-700</strong>,<strong> </strong>interactive web-based courses. When finished, click &#8220;Take Final Exam&#8221;. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>ICS-100</strong> <a href="https://umail.miami.edu/owa/redir.aspx?C=40455e0cac2648189d92c4659f156bff&amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2ftraining.fema.gov%2femiweb%2fis%2fis100b.asp" target="_blank">http://training.fema.gov/emiweb/is/is100b.asp</a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Once you complete the exams, save an electronic copy of your certificates, and then send them to <a href="mailto:president@umcert.com">president@umcert.com</a>. The certificates will be saved and placed on file. <strong>If we do not receive a copy, then according to us, you did not take the exams!!</strong> Each exam takes 2-3 hours so please plan accordingly. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Once the two courses are complete, you are not mandated to take them again as of February 27, 2012.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> **This is subject to change based on the SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) that will be set by future presidents</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">We encourage you to complete as many courses as you would like. If you are interested in a future Eboard role, you are welcome to take<strong> ICS-200 and ICS-800</strong>, as these two courses are required to hold a position on our executive board. </p>

<p>I hope that you all have a spectacular summer vacation and come back in the fall rejuvenated and ready to get back to work! I just wanted to say, again, what a pleasure and an honor it has been serving as your president. I know that you are in good hands next year with a new executive board headed by my successor, Chris Carvajal, and that you will accomplish a lot together. Big things! All the best to you in your scholastic endeavors and beyond.</p>
