The RED3 Incident Commander programme is aimed at your Incident Commander(s).
They’re reponsible for motivating the rest of your team during an incident, making sure everyone is putting their skills to use effectively, and for managing resources at a local level.
RED3 - Incident Commander
Our RED3 Incident Commander programme is designed specifically for the individuals responsible for leading your incident response at a local level.
This means that you’re playing a crucial role in motivating the wider team, ensuring that every person is using their training effectively, and coordinating the resources needed to achieve a safe, controlled, and proportionate response.
In this programme, we help those involved to strengthen their ability to take decisive, well-informed action while ensuring all activity aligns with your organisation’s policies, procedures, and expectations.
Martyn’s Law Training for Incident Commanders
Like all of our training programmes, Martyn’s Law (Protect Duty) is at the core of what we do and our Incident Commander course is no exception.
As the legislation emphasises stronger preparedness for public spaces and organisational environments, it really demonstrates the essential role of Incident Commanders.
This course ensures that your Incident Commander understands how to develop and execute plans for prevention, incident management should the worst happen, and recovery all in line with Martyn’s Law requirements.
We provide exactly what is needed to help your organisation meet its obligations under the legislation provided.
By the end of the course, we are confident that your designated Incident Commander will feel confident in implementing the response plans that we teach on a practical basis, protecting your workforce and the public alike.
What Is RED3 Crisis Management Training?
It is no secret that serious incidents place immense pressure on those responsible for coordinating the response.
That is why the RED3 Incident Commander programme recognises this and provides specific training for chosen delegates with the leadership skills and of course the confidence needed to manage an incident in the real world.
Through our scenario-based learning approach, your chosen delegates will gain experience in assessing the potential threats, managing the team, and the ability to prioritise the correct essential actions under pressure.
This method allows Incident Commanders to understand such situations and to make informed decisions that not only consider immediate action, but long-term recovery too.
Our RED3 Incident Commander programme emphasises:
- Understanding the role of the Incident Commander within wider organisational structure
- Implementing effective command and control strategies
- Maintaining clear communication with building management, security teams, and senior leaders
- Ensuring that all procedures comply with the principles of Martyn’s Law
The result is an Incident Commander who understands not only how to react in a crisis, but how to lead calmly, confidently, and strategically.
The Key Aspects of RED3 Incident Commander: Motivating the Team
Effective crisis management relies not only on strong plans and procedures, but on an Incident Commander who can lead even in a crisis.
The RED3 Incident Commander programme places significant emphasis on responsible team management in even the most extreme situations, ensuring that your delegates understand how to guide their incident team.
This course reinforces the role that effective communication plays across all levels and areas of the organisation, helping Incident Commanders ensure that information is shared accurately.
We also help Incident Commanders identify the key areas that influence whether a response is proportionate to the situation at hand also ensuring that it is consistent with organisational policy.
This includes knowing when to step in and take control, when to delegate tasks to the appropriate team members, and how to maintain oversight without overwhelming the operational process.
By the end of this section of the programme, delegates will understand exactly how to manage their team responsibly during incidents, ensuring that everyone is working collaboratively with a strong leader.
