Emergency Warden (Floor Wardens)

University Emergency Wardens play an essential role within the University's emergency plan specifically in relation to our initial response to emergencies, and emergency evacuation of potentially large numbers of people. The Emergency Warden, or Floor Warden plays a key roll in evacuating a building and responding to different emergencies.

This course provides the background information, roles and responsibilities, procedures and information about the types of emergencies that may occur in their building or around the University.
