A philosopher once said, “The great aim of education is not knowledge, but action.”

There are few places where this statement is more true than at the FEMA Emergency Management Institute (EMI) in Emmitsburg, Maryland.

This week’s guest, Dr. Jeff Stern is the Superintendent of FEMA EMI.

Dr. Stern brings more than 3 decades of experience in the Emergency Management and response fields to this position, having previously served in leadership roles at the local, state and federal levels including presidential appointments as a White House Fellow at the Department of the Interior and the White House Homeland Security Council.

In this episode, Dr. Stern discusses the value of continued education and training in Emergency Management and how the FEMA EMI is working to create systems, programs and curriculum that keeps students at the forefront of how the field is growing and evolving.
