University of New Haven Transportation Strategies for Logistic Responses PPT
PowerPoint Presentation: Transportation Strategies for Logistic Responses (individual)
- This is a 5-8 minute PPT presentation describing your approach to providing transportation resources to support disaster operations. You may focus on one method- air, sea, rail or road.
- The key is to identify what resources you will need and how you intend to support/resource it. This does not need to be detailed; by now you should have a good understanding on how to “deliver the goods”. 8-10 slides max.
I need to sprite presentations and you can chose between AIR, sea , or Road
and I have attacheD an example
