specific areas of the CTP Program that are complex
or involve new technology in order to give the
partners a more advanced level of specific technical
training. Examples of topics include topographic data
development; base mapping and digital flood maps;
and map production and processing procedures. At
the conclusion of this course, participants will have
answers to specific questions, a better understanding
of the technical aspects of the CTP, and more insight
into the FEMA guidance and standards for NFIP
flood maps.
Selection Criteria: Federal, State, and local staff
responsible for implementing and overseeing the
CTP initiative. The course is intended for current CTP
members who are active mapping partners, and who
are responsible for administering the CTP Program

managing floodplain Development through
the national flood Insurance program
(nfIp) train-the-trainer (ttt) (E270)
This course is designed to train subject matter
experts in how to deliver an effective and interesting
course on floodplain management topics. The
Managing Floodplain Development Through the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) (E273) course is used as the
basis for delivery of this training. Participants will
be expected to pick two topics of the E273 course
and be prepared to teach them to the full class, and
then to receive constructive feedback regarding their
presentation. Two days of the course are dedicated to
the various factors that can make training exceptional
and effective, with the remaining 2 days used for
practice and evaluation. Videotapes will be made so
that participants can review their own performance
and critique themselves at their leisure.
Selection Criteria: While the E273 material is used for
presentations in this course, participants should be
able to use the techniques used in this course to
teach many other floodplain management courses.
Participants should be familiar with the course
material they will teach and experienced enough
to teach their class and answer in-depth questions.
If participants wish to present another floodplain
management topic of instruction other than E273,
they should bring that material to the course,
including PowerPoint and instructing material.
Prerequisites:
Recommended: Participants should have attended
E273, Managing Floodplain Development Through the
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), or Certified
Floodplain Managers.
