Today during the TDEM awards luncheon in Fort Worth, TCFP was recognized as the 2026 Council Agency of the Year for our partnership, and for our efforts to develop the Texas Emergency Manager Certification. TCFP Agency Chief Mike Wisko proudly accepted this award on behalf of the extremely talented ad-hoc curriculum committee and curriculum staff who are finalizing more than a year’s worth of work to create this “one of a kind” certification for Texas.

“TCFP is proud to work with TDEM to improve and enhance emergency management across Texas. A group of extremely talented emergency management professionals have put in countless hours along with TCFP staff to ensure a professional certification curriculum is developed.” (-Mike Wisko)
