COURSE SPOTLIGHT: Technical Emergency Response Training for CBRNE Incidents (TERT)
A team of students decontaminates a ‘patient’ in the CDP’s Technical Emergency Response Training for CBRNE Incidents, or TERT, course.
Technical Emergency Response Training for CBRNE Incidents (TERT) is a four-day course that provides responders with chemical-, biological-, radiological-, nuclear- and explosive- (CBRNE-) specific and all-hazards response skills enabling them to respond safely to events with those materials.
The course teaches responders immediate response actions that will enable them to save lives, preserve property, and restore an incident site, as well as information related to the identification of CBRNE hazards. It concludes with the performance of acquired skills and tasks in the COBRA Training Facility.
