The course provides participants with the knowledge and skills needed to prepare for and manage volunteers with no previous Red Cross affiliation who come forward to work with the Red Cross when a disaster threatens or occurs.
Client Assistance System (CAS) This module is designed to introduce the Client Assistance System, its purpose and how it works. It provides an overview of the CAS, its conventions, elements of the system users will see on their computer screens, and their functions. In addition, the module covers the general workflow users should follow when using the CAS. The module then provides users with step-by-step instructions for logging onto the system and how to search within the system for existing incidents, clients, and cases assigned to a specific caseworker, or Individual Assistance Provider (IAP). The emphasis is on day-to-day Chapter work with Incidents, as opposed to DR-specific system use.
