CDP releases non-resident, indirect training numbers for May

The CDP this week released its non-resident and indirect training numbers for May.

According to the data, the CDP conducted 40 non-resident courses for 1,121 responders and eight indirect courses for 210 responders during the month.

Non-resident courses are delivered by contract CDP instructors at locations across the United States. Indirect courses are delivered by volunteer responders to others in their organization, community or both. The volunteer responders must be graduates of the courses they instruct as well as the CDP’s Instructor Training Course.            

The 40 non-resident deliveries during May included delivery of CDP law enforcement courses to members of the Greensboro, North Carolina; O’Fallon, Missouri; and Honolulu, Hawaii police departments; the Rockdale County, Georgia; Winnebago, Minnesota; and Riverside, California sheriffs offices; and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Enforcement Division.

The eight indirect training deliveries, meanwhile, included delivery of the CDP’s Standardized Awareness Training or Hospital Emergency Response Training for Mass Casualty Incidents Course to responders in Wilmington, North Carolina; Oak Ridge and Lenoir, Tennessee; Ravenna, Ohio; Tulsa, Oklahoma; and Las Vegas, Nevada.

Since opening in 1998, the CDP has trained more than 1.3 million responders. That number includes responders trained on the CDP’s campus in Anniston, Alabama; at hundreds of locations across the United States; and online.
