Floodplain Management Training
The Indiana Department of Natural Resources is a proven partner to FEMA with a history of providing, maintaining, and improving floodplain management services throughout the state.
Floodplain Management Events & Training

There is now another option to obtain floodplain management training at no cost for the community. The Division of Water has partnered with the Association of State Floodplain Managers (ASFPM) to develop an interactive online course. Simply follow the link below, create an account (or sign-in if you already have one), and complete the course. The course is self-paced and will track your progress, generating a certificate upon completion of all included activities and knowledge checks. If you take this course to comply with IC 14-28-3-7.2, the certificate must be submitted to dowfpm@dnr.IN.gov to verify compliance.
Recorded Workshops and Training
In partnership with FEMA, the DNR Division of Water is implementing and updating training videos. These videos are intended for use by floodplain administrators, other local officials, or property owners. The videos and web pages broaden knowledge of floodplain management and the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) requirements. Videos will be maintained and updated on this site for those who did not have an opportunity to attend the workshops in person or virtually or those who wish to have a refresher on a particular topic. If you do not find a topic of interest below, contact us at DNRFPM@dnr.IN.gov for more information.
