2026 Event Schedule

As wildfires become more frequent, destructive, and complex, utilities must adopt a forward-leaning, technologyenabled
approach to resilience. This four-hour Grid University course is designed for professionals who are ready to
operationalize wildfire preparedness and response through cross-functional planning, predictive analytics, grid
hardening strategies, and public safety power shutoff (PSPS) readiness.
Topics include designing scalable ICS/NIMS programs, aligning mutual aid, contractor, and vendor processes,
integrating software platforms, and creating readiness plans that stand up to internal audits and regulatory scrutiny.
Attendees will explore emerging utility practices in resilience modeling, PSPS coordination, field intelligence
platforms, public communications, and enterprise-wide after-action improvement loops.
Case studies illustrate how leading utilities are embedding readiness into operations, partnering with technology
vendors, and continuously refining their emergency programs through structured review and investment cycles.
