Incident Response to Terrorist Bombings (IRTB) Course
Your department will not pay for this training. They need only approve your attendance. This class reviews different explosives from letter bombs on up. You will get to view the materials close up, then from a shelter, observe them activated and review the destruction they can cause. Valuable information all responders should be aware of, so I thought I would pass it along. Classes are ongoing beyond April, follow the link for more dates.
Please tell others that might be available for these dates to submit their applications in quickly. REMEMBER THAT THE EXPENSES FOR THE TRAINING (travel, Lodging, etc) is paid for by DHS/FEMA grant funding.
Have several slots for the March 16-19 B and C, March 23-26 B and C, April 13-16 B and C, and all classes there after and need first responders to fill the slots. I would appreciate you passing on the info to first responders in your area and encouraging them to submit an application. They can call me direct and I will assist them getting scheduled.
There are several PRSBI SLOTS AVAILABLE FOR THE March 1-5, March 15-19, March 22-26 and all PRSBI classes thereafter.
