Incident Response To Terrorist Bombings

The four hour performance level IRTB course provides basic information on explosive and incendiary devices that could be used as terrorist weapons. Classroom topics include:

* Understanding the terrorist threat
* Improvised explosive devices (IEDs)
* Safety issues
* Departmental or agency policies to ensure compliance with local requirements

Due to the sensitive nature of this subject matter, employment as an active law enforcement officer, firefighter, or emergency medical technician, or assignment to other positions at state or local level involved in planning for or implementing emergency responses to bomb incidents is required. Appropriate agency affiliation will be verified prior to attendance.
