Trainings

Shirey Enterprise Group (SEG) fields contractors into storm response and utility base-camp work with Recovery Logistics (RLI). RLI runs periodic trainings so the network stays credentialed and ready. Below is what we can share publicly about the current nomination cycle— session names, timing, format, and general focus. Details can change; your ops contact remains the source of truth for eligibility and enrollment.

SEG texts our contractors directly when work comes available, standby is called, or a job stands down. This is separate from anything you receive through RLI — it's just how we stay in close contact with our own network. Add your number here — it takes about a minute.

Damage Assessment Training

In Person

A one-day course. Participants select either the Tuesday or Wednesday session for their chosen week. If both days have low enrollment, sessions may be consolidated to the higher-attended date. Multiple locations have been scheduled; we can also travel to central sites to serve groups across partner vendors.

RLI Late Spring 2026 Training Nominations

Nomination / response deadline (RLI): Thursday, April 16, 2026

Please respond as soon as possible. Due to travel, the window to get you into a nomination is very short — if a session below is a fit, don't wait.

One training per contractor this cycle.

Space is limited and seats are allocated carefully. Please review all sessions and reach out about one training only. Contractors who respond to multiple sessions will not be given priority consideration.

  • Tent Deployment Training

    In person

    When: May 13

    Where: Goldston, NC

    Focus: Yard / base camp operations

    Hands-on base camp training covering temporary structure setup, breakdown, and site layout management for utility and storm response operations. You'll be on your feet for most of the day — expect physical work in outdoor conditions. Prior yard, construction, or grounds experience is a plus. This is a direct path to being deployable on base camp yard crews.

  • Alternative Housing Supervisor

    Online

    When: May 20

    Focus: Alternative housing supervision

    Covers oversight of alternative housing units at base camp — coordinating contractor assignments, tracking occupancy, managing unit turnover, and maintaining safety and accountability across a housing area. Background in property management, hospitality, housing coordination, or camp logistics is helpful. This is a supervisory-level role with direct responsibility over a crew.

  • Staffing Worker Training

    Online

    When: May 27

    Focus: Office worker

    A headquarters-based dispatch role. Covers high-volume crew coordination, ETA tracking, communication with field teams, and managing incoming contractor flow from a central operations position. If you're organized, comfortable on the phone and computer simultaneously, and work well in a fast-paced office environment — this is your lane. No prior field experience required.

  • Field Staffing Coordinator

    Online

    When: May 28

    Focus: Field worker with office skills

    An on-the-ground contractor role focused on bridging field staffing operations with headquarters. You're the eyes and ears in the yard — tracking crew movements, flagging gaps to dispatch, and keeping field logistics synchronized with the central ops team. Prior field or coordination experience strongly preferred. Comfort with tools like Microsoft Teams and online portals is expected.

  • Safety and Wellness

    Online

    When: June 17

    Covers field safety protocols, wellness practices during extended deployment, and emergency response awareness. No specific background is required — but if you have experience with first aid, CPR certification, occupational health, or have worked extended shifts in field conditions, this session is especially worth your time. Open to all contractors in the network.

  • Catering Supervisors

    When: TBD

    Focus: Catering supervision

    Covers food service operations at base camp — meal coordination, vendor oversight, crew headcounts, health and safety compliance, and supply logistics. Food service management, catering, or institutional cooking background preferred. More details will be shared when dates are confirmed.

These sessions are reserved for contractors actively in — or being considered for — the Yard Director role. RLI extends invitations directly based on field experience and operational track record. They are not open for general nomination. If you believe you qualify, reach out to your SEG ops contact.

  • Yard Director Training

    In person

    When: May 4–6

    Where: To be confirmed

    Focus: Yard Director bench / coordination

  • Yard Director Update Meeting

    Online

    When: June 2
