All Hazards Incident Management Program
The Michigan All Hazards Incident Management Team (MI AHIMT) Program strengthens emergency preparedness and response across the state by developing a highly trained, credentialed incident management workforce. Grounded in the standards of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and the National Qualification System (NQS), the program ensures that personnel are equipped with the training, experience, and performance-based qualifications needed to manage complex emergencies. MI AHIMT members support local, state, and national disaster operations by providing specialized expertise that helps save lives, stabilize incidents, and protect property and the environment.
Through a statewide network of AHIMT Credentialing Entities (ACEs), the MI AHIMT Program maintains a consistent, rigorous process for qualifying and certifying personnel in key incident management roles. The MI AHIMT Advisory Committee offers strategic oversight, promotes statewide consistency, and guides the continuous improvement of Michigan’s incident management capabilities. Supported by program oversight from the Michigan State Police Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division, this collaborative structure ensures that Michigan sustains a strong, professional, and nationally- aligned Type III incident management capability.
