What is included
Four IS-100/200/700/800 companions, structured so the team walks each course in the same order.
01
IS-100.c study companion
ICS 100-level primer — chain of command, span of control, and the principles every other IS course assumes you already know.
02
IS-200.c study companion
ICS 200-level primer — unified command, area command, the resource typing model, and how it changes when more than one agency responds.
03
IS-700.b study companion
NIMS 700 primer — the components of NIMS, how ICS fits into the larger framework, and the resource-management concepts FEMA exams lean on.
04
IS-800.d study companion
NRF 800 primer — the response framework referral flows, the ESFs, and how a request moves from a city EOC up to federal-state mutual aid.
05
Editable Word + print-ready PDF
Delivered as both PDF (ready to print or share) and an editable Word document so you can pin your agency field values (EMCOORD numbers, regional contacts, exam-prep notes) right in the file.
06
Per-organization license
One fee, one program. Share with anyone inside your organization — no per-seat math and no redistribution of the editable files themselves.
Who this is for
For the team that has to take the FEMA IS track this quarter — not next year.
- Emergency-management coordinators tasked with onboarding new staff through the IS track
- Continuity and COOP leads who need the formal FEMA recognition that IS-100/200/700/800 provide
- Public-agency and private-sector teams preparing for joint response without an in-house instructor
- Consultants delivering a ready-made IS study track to multiple agencies or clients

Sample — IS-100.c study companion, Lesson 2
One sub-element of the companion, with the answer-key wiring underneath.
Lesson 2 — ICS Fundamentals: Chain of Command & Unity of Command
READ (≈6 min)
Chain of Command: the line of authority from Incident Commander
down through Section Chiefs, then Branch / Unit / Resource levels.
Unity of Command: every individual reports to one supervisor.
This keeps orders clear and avoids conflicting instructions during
a fast-moving incident.
POINTS OF CLARIFICATION
- The IC's role is command, not direct supervision. Orders flow
through one identifiable chain.
- Unity of Command is not Unit Command — they are unrelated.
- Span of control: 3 to 7 (5 the recommended default) per
supervisor.
QUICK-CHECK (write, then check the answer key companion)
Q1. A single supervisor manages THREE subordinates. Is that
within the recommended span of control? (Y/N)
Q2. An Operations Branch Director reports to Operations Section
Chief AND to the IC directly. Is that consistent with Unity
of Command? (Y/N)Excerpt only — the full file is delivered as an editable Word or Excel document after checkout.
Frequently asked
Common questions, answered up front.
- What do I actually receive when I buy the bundle?
- After checkout on Gumroad, you get four study companions — IS-100.c, IS-200.c, IS-700.b, and IS-800.d. Each companion is a structured read-through of the course material with study-points and answer-key buttons for self-test, delivered as both a print-ready PDF and an editable Word document so you can pin agency-specific notes.
- Does this replace taking the FEMA IS courses?
- No — the bundle is a study companion. The actual FEMA IS courses and final exams are free on the EMI website and administered independently. The companion helps your team walk the material before sitting the final, and gives a consistent reference document they can return to.
- Can my team share the bundle internally?
- Yes — the license is per-organization, not per-seat. Share with anyone inside your agency or company. Reselling or redistributing the editable Word files is not permitted.
- Is the content current to the latest IS revisions?
- The companions are written against the IS-100.c, IS-200.c, IS-700.b, and IS-800.d versions. Pair the bundle with the latest EMI Job Aids for any post-publication updates to exam content.
