Integrated Capstone Events (ICE)

The Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) conducted an Integrated Capstone Event (ICE) in June 2011 that combined the talents of a multi-discipline response force reacting to a scenario driven, CBRNE/all hazards, incident incorporating mass casualties. The objective of the event was to integrate a number of classes and use the skills and techniques previously learned during the weeks training and challenge the student to react, with confidence, to a fast paced stressful situation. The results of the event, voiced by the students during the After Action Review (AAR), convinced the CDP leadership to incorporate ICE events into all future training calendars. These ICE events are designed to give the student an opportunity to practice response actions with immediate feedback resulting in a better trained response force for the community. Any course on the training calendar with the ICE acronym will be a participant in this collective training program.
