The objectives of the Oregon ICT Branch Program are as follows:
- Establish minimum training and qualification standards for ICT Branch personnel working as part of the ICT Branch or as a single resource assignment consistent with federal guidelines and/or the National Qualification System as appropriate.
- Guide the development of knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to obtain recognition of qualifications within the state of Oregon through the certification and credentialing process.
- Define criteria to obtain and maintain both certification, and credentialed status for position-specific roles within the ICT Branch.
- Retain the foundation of the performance-based qualification system established and implemented through the NQS developed by FEMA and expand the performance-based evaluation process to include Oregon specific qualification requirements.
