Responders urged to apply for August BPAC/FFO offering

The Center for Domestic Preparedness has seat openings in its combined Bombing Prevention Awareness Course (BPAC) / Field Force Operations (FFO) Course, which is scheduled for August 22-27.

BPAC teaches attendees how to recognize and respond to suspicious individuals and improvised explosive devices, or IEDs, while the FFO course teaches responders how to safely control crowds, to include demonstrations.

Both courses are geared at law enforcement officers and security personnel. They’re also free; CDP training for state, local, tribal and territorial first responders is fully funded by the Department of Homeland Security.
