Improvised Explosive Devices and Bomb
Recognition
This course will be modified to the
level of expertise in the audience and can be adapted in the classroom for
multiple levels of experience and understanding.
Training Goals and Objectives
The goal of the training program is
to prepare the sworn law enforcement officer, general piece officer,
emergency medical responder, emergency fire responder, or other public
safety community servants’ members to recognize and identify bomb or
improvised explosive devices.
The course will be focused on
providing information and techniques to identify devices and individuals
that may develop these types of devices. Several areas will be addressed;
each area by it self is an area of expertise requiring detailed individual
course instruction.
Training Audience, Format and
Content
This course is intended for various
levels of experienced sworn law enforcement officers, public safety
officers, emergency medical responders, emergency fire responders,
administrative workers in the public safety field, or other related
oriented response agencies. The intent of the trainer is to provide
survival tools and recognition techniques so that the student can
recognize the danger signs of explosive devices or persons that may
develop these types of devices.
This course is most successful when
taught and received with audiences of 30 officers or fewer, but has been
given in-groups of 40 or more with successful reviews. The smaller groups
enable officers to have more direct dialog with the instructor and the
other students.
The course is designed as a one-day
course. The students will lean the dangers that pose and the outcome of
explosive devices. Depending if time allowances and if inert devices can
be delivered because of transportation constraints, the students will
witness devices in there actual state’s and understand how they are
functioned. The course is designed to be conducted from 0800 to 1600
hours daily.
