In-Person and Virtual Training
NJAFM offers both in-person and virtual self-study floodplain management training options. In-person training classes are offered periodically throughout the year and are announced via email and posted on this training webpage.
Floodplain Management Course - TBD
NJAFM is offering a two-day, in-person course to review the basics of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This floodplain management training course will focus on the rules and regulations of the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA’s) NFIP as the foundational knowledge needed for floodplain managers. The course will closely follow FEMA 480: NFIP Floodplain Management Requirements: A Study Guide and Desk Reference for Local Officials. The course will also include relevant newer guidance from FEMA not included in FEMA 480, as well as a general overview of higher standards required in the State of New Jersey by the New Jersey Flood Hazard Area Control Act.
