Training Description:

The goal of this training is to offer in-person training by veoci solutions engineers about Oregon’s continuity planning platform solution. This training does not explicitly include continuity planning concepts, but if there are questions existing at the intersection of veoci and continuity planning, then the State of Oregon’s Continuity Coordinators will be available to answer questions. Please read the following information to ensure your successful participation in training:

Food, snacks, and beverages are not provided. However, there are nearby options for meals and snacks around the training facilities.
Please ensure that you can log in prior to class. If you need any assistance, reach out to the State Continuity Coordinators at oem.continuity@oem.oregon.gov.
From the VEOCI Trainers: It will be crucial each attendee brings a computer as well as real/sample data (preferably in .CSV or Excel files), as we will be developing continuity of operations plans throughout the day. Examples of data could include staff, essential functions, vital records/resources, facilities, communication methods, orders of succession, delegations of authority or other documents you would like appended to your plan. Templates for this data can be found linked in your departmental side room.

This training is designed to provide a constructive space for learners to be introduced to the VEOCI COOP platform and begin their journey toward mastering it. If you have any challenges navigating the platform or have specific questions related to the course content, this is the perfect opportunity to ask!

If you have concerns regarding the platform, the training process, or any other feedback, please share them directly with the State’s Continuity Program Coordinators at oem.continuity@oem.oregon.gov. A coordinator will be on-site every day, but they are also available outside of class hours. They are working closely with VEOCI’s solution engineers to address user feedback and contacting them is the best way to ensure your concerns are integrated into ongoing improvements.

We look forward to seeing you there and hope you find the training valuable!
