On Scene Commander
Development Programme
3 Days │ Certificate of Competency │ HRD Corp Claimable
The On Scene Commander Development Programme (OSCDP) is designed to prepare leaders to take command, make decisions under pressure, and manage resources effectively at the scene of an incident.
Through scenario-based exercises and command simulations, participants gain the skills to coordinate teams, control operations, and ensure safety during critical moments.
By the end of the programme, participants will be able to:
Apply the Incident Command System (ICS) to manage on-scene operations.
Evaluate the situation and prioritise actions during emergencies.
Demonstrate effective communication and coordination across multiple response units.
Lead decision-making under time-sensitive, high-pressure conditions.
Conduct post-incident debriefings and continuous improvement planning.
Emergency Response Team (ERT) Leaders
Safety Officers and Site Commanders
Supervisors and Department Heads
Personnel involved in emergency planning and on-scene management
The OSCDP helps transform capable responders into confident leaders who can take control, direct resources, and maintain order during emergencies.
It ensures that your organisation’s response doesn’t just rely on individual effort but on a clear command structure that drives coordination and saves lives.
