CDP records another virtual training milestone
CDP reached a significant milestone earlier this month with its 25,000th VILT completion certificate.
The Center for Domestic Preparedness reached a significant milestone earlier this month when it issued its 25,000th virtual instructor-led training (VILT) completion certificate.
VILT offerings are currently rivaling resident training as the mode of CDP training with the second largest number of completions annually. The form of CDP training with the most annual completions continues to be non-resident training, which accounts for about half of all CDP course completions in a typical year.
The CDP currently has a library of 60 VILT offerings, including entire CDP courses offered in this format as well as individual modules from select courses. The offerings are geared to a variety of responders, from emergency managers and firefighters to law enforcement officers and medical professionals.
The CDP delivered its first VILT in the spring of 2020.
Brief descriptions about, and scheduled dates and times of, all CDP VILT presentations can be found at https://cdp.dhs.gov/vilt.
Responders who want to attend a VILT event must register prior to its start date. Once registered, they are provided links and login instructions to the virtual classroom, in addition to other information.
