Emergency Management Degree to be offered at Kankakee

Beginning with the spring semester, Kankakee Community College (KCC) will offer an Associate Degree in Emergency Management. Prompted by the onset of disasters in the last five years, the program will put KCC on the "forefront of training leaders for crisis preparedness, emergency management and homeland protection". In development for several years, the program will include a broad range of topics within emergency management, and has received a great deal of interest from potential students, many of whom are in law enforcement or fire service.
