The City of Everett’s Office of Emergency Management is inviting community members to participate in the upcoming Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Basic Academy, beginning March 3rd, 2026.
The CERT Basic Academy is a multi-week training program designed to equip residents with the skills needed to prepare for and respond to emergencies in their neighborhoods.
Classes will be held Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., March 3rd through March 26th, 2026, at the Everett Municipal Building at 2930 Wetmore Ave.
