CDP has openings in October classes

The Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) has seat openings in an upcoming offering of its Field Force Operations (FFO) and Law Enforcement Protective Measures for Complex Incidents (LEPM) courses in October.

FFO is a three-day course which provides law enforcement and security officers with instruction in protest types and actions, legal considerations, responsibilities of mobile field force teams, and crowd-control methods. The course culminates with a series of hands-on activities, allowing responders to practice all of their learned skills in a realistic context.

LEPM provides law enforcement officers with the knowledge and skills required to safely perform law enforcement roles during an active threat situation involving hazardous materials. It’s coupled with the CDP’s Intermediate Hands-On Training for CBRNE Incidents: Law Enforcement and Law Enforcement Response Actions for CBRNE Incidents.

CDP training is completely funded for state, local, tribal and territorial emergency responders to include roundtrip airfare, meals, and lodging.
