The CORE Refresher is designed to ensure that CORE-trained citizens retain, enhance and practice basic emergency response skills. The CORE Refresher provides:

an update to your CORE ID badge and Disaster Services Worker form
The CORE Refresher includes a written quiz and skills stations at which individuals will demonstrate the selected skills. It may be combined with other advanced training workshops to provide an in-depth review of CORE subject matter. Individuals who completed CORE training more than two years ago are encouraged to register for the next CORE Refresher.
