Strengthening Risk Communications Training Support to Clients
A CSS employee owner supporting NOAA’s Office for Coastal Management (sub-contracted through Lynker Technologies) has been working closely with colleagues to develop, improve, and deliver trainings related to risk communication.
The CSS trainer delivered their first training of Building Risk Communications Skills in Rhode Island to an audience of over 30 coastal managers, planners, practitioners, and a U.S. Representative. The training was well received and will help participants develop new skills to better connect with a variety of audiences by improving their risk communication skills for coastal hazards planning and preparedness.
Through these trainings, CSS employee owners support the mission of NOAA’s Office for Coastal Management by building capacity of communities and practitioners to increase the nation’s resilience to coastal hazards while protecting natural habitat.
