Description
Last year, in 2019, I got a request from a student in to create a course on how to deal with emergencies. This is an important part of long term planning, and I put it on my to do list of courses to create sometime in the future.
Then, in January 2020, I learned about the Coronavisus (now COVID-19) and decided that I should make this course my top priority.
But this course isn't like my normal courses, where it's the result of years of accumulated effort.
This course is a rushed-course designed to give you the information I found to be most useful over the last month (2020.02) when I researched the field of Emergency Management and it's related fields on Crises, Disasters, etc.
I've collected the mental models, processes and ideas that I think are most valuable and put them into one place. I've also collected my favorite website, books, PDFs and other resources into one place so that you can check these out and do more learning for yourself, and keep up to date as things change.
The focus of this course is primarily on how to think about handling emergencies as an individual and as a leader in a family. I have not included much on COVID-19 itself because a lot of details are still uncertain or unknown, so I think it's better that I point you to the best places for up to date information and then you can use those to learn about the disease itself.

Kenny Media is a brand focused on making courses for accelerated learners. Our goal is to create courses that combine the best content with the best teaching so that you can learn things faster and implement them in your life. To make the best content, we start by looking for the best systems and frameworks so that everything makes sense in the big picture. Once we've sorted out the high level frameworks, we look for ways to help you implement the ideas with printable diagrams, exercises and useful tools. Once the content is done, we look for the best way to teach the ideas, by explaining everything in plain English and avoiding jargon. We also use metaphors and analogies to help you understand complex concepts, as well as providing examples and real life stories so the ideas stick long term. Our belief is that the recipe of high quality systematic content combined with high quality teaching that explains things in easy to understand language is the key to accelerated learning.
