The objective of this one day Explosives & Explosive Effects (E&EE) Training Course is to provide members of the federal, state, and local security, and first responder communities the opportunity to receive training and information in regard to understanding explosives, and explosive devices. The course will also cover topics to include terrorist trends, improvised explosives device (IED) componentry, construction and employment tradecraft, as well as best practice safety information in regard to explosives and explosive devices.

The instruction is delivered in both classroom and outdoor range settings. Following an informative classroom briefing session, attendees are given the opportunity to attend a Live Fire Explosives Demolition Range demonstration. The instructor led Explosives Demolition Range Demonstration session furthers the course objectives by exposing the students to a variety of commercial, military and improvised explosives and mimic historical explosives devices. The demonstration allows the students to see firsthand key identification features of explosives as well as the destructive effects of explosives and explosive devices. Throughout the classroom and range demonstrations our training staff will deliver a host of best practices in regard to officer and public safety when dealing with explosives materials and devices during the execution of their daily duties.
