The National Center for Biomedical Research and Training (NCBRT) at Louisiana State University (LSU), a member of the National Domestic Preparedness Consortium (NDPC) will be presenting the DHS approved training course entitled, "Advanced Tactical Operations- WMD Interdiction" (PER 227).

COST: None, but please preregister as seating is limited.

DESCRIPTION

This course is designed to address technical and practical aspects of implementing an effective and safe tactical law enforcement response to a WMD incident. As such, it offers participants the opportunity to apply technical knowledge in scenario training for the experience of working in a WMD environment and testing abilities and capabilities to prevent, intercept, mitigate, and eliminate threats.

The content in this course is an extension of the knowledge and skills taught in the WMD Tactical Operations course. This course introduces advanced techniques, which focus on the interdiction of WMD in transit or on the scene; therefore, a large emphasis is placed on linear targets such as transit-style buses; rail cars, both passenger and freight; subway cars; and aircraft. Furthermore, this course provides detailed technical information through presentations and progressively complex and challenging practical exercises in which participants apply knowledge gained and have the opportunity to preemptively intercept weapons in transit or on scene.
