The '''United States’ Emergency Management Institute''' (EMI), of the United States [[Federal Emergency Management Agency]] (FEMA), serves as the United States’ focal point for the development and delivery of [[emergency management]] [[training]]. The emergency management training improves the capabilities of [[state government|state]], territorial, [[local government|local]], and tribal government officials; volunteer organizations; FEMA's disaster workforce; other Federal agencies; and the public and private sectors to minimize the impact of disasters and [[emergency|emergencies]] on the American public. EMI curricula are structured to meet the needs of this diverse audience, with an emphasis on separate organizations working together in all-hazards emergencies to save lives and protect property. Particular emphasis is placed on governing doctrine, such as, the [[National Response Framework]] (NRF), [[National Incident Management System]] (NIMS), and the National Preparedness Guidelines.<ref name="FEMA2">{{cite web|url=http://training.fema.gov/|title=Welcome to National Training and Education|publisher=Emergency Management Institute|access-date=October 19, 2015}}{{PD-notice}}</ref> EMI is fully accredited by the [[Continuing education unit|International Association for Continuing Education and Training]] (IACET) and the [[American Council on Education]] (ACE).<ref>[http://www.collapsenet.com/goods-and-services/44-disaster-preparedness/1074-emergency-management-institute EMI Accredited] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150925092538/http://www.collapsenet.com/goods-and-services/44-disaster-preparedness/1074-emergency-management-institute |date=September 25, 2015 }}</ref> The instruction is based upon the principles of [[emergency management]] and [[instructional systems design]].
