Isn there a State sponsored ARES/RACES training program?
No. There are several groups providing training at a variety of levels, but without a ‘program’ in place, and without the training being accredited, there is no way to tell when a person is ‘qualified’ for the job. What is being offered presently is often good informative training, and much of what is being offered will be included in the ACES program. The difference is that ACES developed a ‘program’ with a specific curriculum and skills that must be demonstrated prior to ‘certification’ to a particular level. Since ARES (according to the ARRL) membership does not require any training, it is not in a good position to develop a statewide training program.
