About the Pandemic Playbook

Northeast Iowa Community College (NICC) has implemented this Pandemic Playbook to outline the College’s approach to providing the safest possible learning environment during this pandemic. NICC has worked closely with local public health agencies and received guidance from governmental authorities while monitoring the newest information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website to help create this plan. The ultimate goal is to continue to provide mindful focus on the health and safety of all who enter our campus environment by implementing, monitoring and adjusting plans as necessary.

Pandemic Response Team

The Pandemic Response Team (PRT) is a cross-functional team led by district managers. The PRT will be responsible for the implementation of the district’s pandemic preparedness and response plan. This team works in close collaboration with the NICC Senior Leadership Team.

The NICC Pandemic Playbook will guide the PRT in its responsibilities. The PRT is charged with ensuring training is accomplished, updates are communicated, and policies and procedures are carried out across the College. The PRT will monitor compliance and make recommendations to the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) for changes or additions to plans.

Your well-being has always been a top priority. NICC will be reopening in steps rather than all at once. Review the Steps for Re-opening. Each step assures that staff, services and processes are in place to safely proceed to the next step; if the situation warrants, we may move back a step to ensure safety.
