This training program will help organizations meet Department of Homeland Security grant requirements, which emphasize programs that encourage public and private IED awareness.
Recent history has shown that IEDs (improvised explosive devices) and VBIEDs (vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices) are often the terrorists’ weapon of choice. It is likely that these attacks would be carried out in non-
battlefield environments. The first responder community will be a community's first line of defense if these deadly weapons are involved in an incident. This new program, IEDs & VBIEDs, will raise the awareness of emergency personnel regarding these weapons.
This package, which includes a training DVD plus resource CD-Rom, is designed for police officers, firefighters, hazmat teams, bomb squads, EMTs, emergency management, military personnel, security guards and others who may encounter or respond to incidents involving IEDs. Both pre- and post-detonation response are portrayed. Topics covered:
-
Types of explosives and precursor chemicals that are often used to construct an IED
- Warning signs of the presence of a possible VBIED including new configurations based on al-Qaeda intelligence
- Conducting reconnaissance, evacuation distances, and using remote robots.
- Establishing Unified Command
- Sizing up the incident,
- Managing victims
- Preserving evidence
- Accompanying resource CD-Rom which includes a customizable PowerPoint presentation, quiz, references and other materials that will help an Instructor present a seminar.
