You are invited to join the Resilient Cities Academy at a critical moment-in-time. The ongoing challenges of viable government programs; the lack of community services; pervasive household economic hardship; and acute weather-generated disasters spawn crisis-after-crisis across the country and around the globe.
We are here to help all those interested in creating standards: individuals, communities, schools, businesses, non-profits, institutions and related multi-level government agencies in more effective planning and better preparedness to respond, survive and even thrive in spite of both natural and man-made catastrophic disasters. |
The Resilient Cities Academy also offers a curated news site; interactive guides; apps; online courses and training events. The Guides cover all the key important aspects of certified Chief Resilience Officer and and Resilient Cities pre, during and post disaster resilience training.
We review state-of-the-art disaster preparation and planning; incident management, best practices and global standards-based response programs. We see personal, community, business, institutional and governmental self-sustainability as the prime directive. |
We advocate and support open source solutions; industry standard best practices; and local community-based rules and programs. Our products and services support individual basic training to advanced train-the-trainer certification.
From food, water and safety, to shelter and energy—informed resilience incorporates needs-based preparation and sustainable solutions. Disaster preparation from earthquakes and hurricanes, to total power grid failure. Resilience is an individual and community mindset and a conscious intentional lifestyle. |
Resilient Cities combine preparation with the latest advances in technology and education so that
Cities can maintain and even increase their citizens' quality of life and standard of living. CRO and Resilient Cities Academy will help keep you and/or your team better informed about the latest CRO news, standards,best practice case studies, emerging educational and survival technologies.
