Emergency Management at the University

Welcome to the Emergency Management website for the University of Melbourne.

Hazards exist within all environments whether they are recognised or not. The need to prevent, respond to or recover from these hazards requires that we all actively participate in the emergency management process.

This website contains emergency response information and procedures, training course details, and advice for everyone who works or studies at the University, especially our Wardens.

Training Changes for 2007 / 2008

• All bookings for Warden, Fire Extinguisher and Suspicious Package / Threat training are now managed via Themis.
You can view all EHS Training on the EHS Training site and follow the links from there. http://www.pb.unimelb.edu.au/ehs/ehs/training.php3#3
• Alternatively, use your Themis Self Service - Training & Development website to book.

Both Warden & Fire Extinguisher training has been scheduled for at least one session every month of 2008.

While the sessions continue as in previous years, we have made a few changes to the content, scheduling and the registration process.

• The emergency response courses are now held on location in the BIO 21, BOARDROOM, DAVID PENNINGTON BUILDING (102) Enter off Flemington Rd, where you will be guided by reception..
• The BEC course is held in your building still.
• All courses remain free of charge
