                  NATIONAL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (NIMS)
                         INCIDENT COMMAND SYSTEM (ICS)
                          POSITION TASK BOOKS (PTBs)
                                       
Position Task Books (PTBs) are designed to be used by any individual (trainee) interested in becoming certified under the National Incident Management System (NIMS). The PTBs are intended to be used to document experiences that indicate successful completion of tasks specific to an Incident Command System (ICS) position. The performance requirements for each position are associated with core ICS competencies, behaviors, and tasks as suggested to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) by a multi-disciplined, highly-experienced expert panel. 

Trainees are evaluated during this process by qualified evaluators, and the trainee's performance is documented in the PTB for each task by the evaluator's initials and date of completion. An Evaluation Record will be completed by all evaluators documenting the trainee's progress after each evaluation opportunity. 

Successful performance of all tasks, as observed and recorded by an evaluator, will result in a recommendation to the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) of the trainee, that the trainee be certified in that position. Evaluation and confirmation of the trainee's performance while completing all tasks will normally require more than one training assignment and several different evaluators. Incidents lasting several days may involve multiple evaluators. Tasks may be evaluated on incidents, in a classroom simulation, in training and exercises, and in other work situations as long as there is a qualified evaluator.  

It is important performances be critically evaluated and accurately recorded by each evaluator.  All tasks should be evaluated.  

The NIMS Qualification Process Guide lists the definitions for trainee, evaluator, training officer, and AHJ. 

Responsibilities:

1. Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ):

3. Evaluator(s):
   * Being qualified and proficient in the evaluated position
   * Meeting with the trainee and determining past experience, current qualifications, and desired objectives/goals

   * Identifying and assigning an evaluator who can provide a positive experience for the trainee, when the evaluation opportunity is within the AHJ's jurisdiction

Competencies, Behaviors and Tasks:

Each Position Task Book lists the performance requirements (tasks) for specific positions set by the ICS competencies and behaviors (September 2007) recognized by FEMA's National Integration Center and posted to the NIMS Resource Center Web site, http://www.fema.gov/emergency/nims/.

There are numerous bullet statements listed under each task. The bullet statements are listed as guidelines/examples for the evaluator to follow to ensure that the intent of the task has been completed. Not all bullet statements for a task are required to be completed if the overall intent of the task has been satisfied.

Each task has a code associated with the type of training assignment where the task may be completed. These include: O = other, I = incident/event and R = rare event. Definitions for these codes may be found below*. While tasks can be performed in any situation, they should be evaluated on the specific type of incident/event for which they are coded. Tasks coded "I" should be evaluated on an incident/event, and so on. Performance of any task other than the designated assignment is not valid for qualification.

*Code:	
    O 	= Task can be completed in a variety of situations, such as in a classroom, exercise or simulation, incident or event, or daily job.
    I	=	Task should be performed on an incident or event which is managed under the ICS. 
    R	=	Rare events seldom occur and opportunities to evaluate trainee performance in real settings are limited. Examples of rare events include accidents, injuries, vehicle and aircraft crashes. Through interviews, the evaluator may be able to determine if the trainee could perform the task in a real situation.
