Bjorkman, instructor of emergency management/social science at Penn College, was a recent guest on the Keystone Emergency Management Association's podcast. Bjorkman serves as secretary for the association, which is holding its second annual Emergency Preparedness Conference through Tuesday at the Blair County Convention Center in Altoona. In a 10-minute interview with co-hosts Paul Falavolito and Amy Amer, the faculty member provided an overview of the college's four-year emergency management technology degree – career opportunities, the realistic disaster simulations in which students participate, the overwhelming acceptance by veteran first responders to this "new generation" of emergency personnel and the college's participation with KEMA's mentorship committee.
