DESCRIPTION:The  West Virginia National Guard and West Virginia University have a unique  opportunity for first responders to take part in a brand new FEMA  approved onsite training course pilot.

The  Tunnel is used as a training center for the National Guard for military  and joint operations in counter terrorism, WMD events, and civil  response, and has trained first responders from New York, Boston, Seattle, North Carolina, and  Atlanta, among many others.

The  pilot dates are April 17-19 and May 8-10, 2012.

The  target audience is Police, Fire, EMS,  and HazMat personnel.   This  training course can be at the individual, unit, or  multi-organization/agency level.  After each training day, there will be a "hot wash" conducted to get your  input on the day's events. -- More Info @ Link: http://www.hsp.wvu.edu -- Phone: 304-293-1455 -- Email: Joan.Caridi@mail.wvu.edu --
