Preventing Terrorist Suicide Attacks  
Law enforcement officers will be able learn methods of disrupting the planning, preparation, and execution of Islamist terrorist suicide attacks within the United States.  The course objective goes beyond mere post-blast reaction to an incident that has already occurred; participants will acquire the knowledge and skills for the pro-active prevention and defeat of the suicide terrorist threat.  This objective is based on the premise that in the course of their daily work, law enforcement officers are very likely to encounter Islamist terrorists and potential suicide bombers that are present in the U.S.  If these officers possess the appropriate skills and knowledge, they can be an invaluable tool in the domestic war on terror.  The course also gives officers the basic knowledge to identify sleeper cells funding terrorism through narcotics and other crimes, and in addition survive and defeat a suicide bombing in-progress, to include engagement criteria and the use of deadly force.

Improvised Explosive Devices
The Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) recognition class is an 8-hour program.  Primarily didactic in nature, the course contains open-source footage and illustrations of various IEDs and their components.  The evolution of IEDs from the “primitive” to the “contemporary” will be compared. Current day examples of circuit components and detonation devices will be examined
