  • The definition of the term 'Terrorism' and 'Terrorist'
  • The history of terrorism and its affects
  • What is an Improvised Explosive Device
  • The different types of explosive devices and methods that terrorists employ
  • Counter terror organisations
  • Contingency and emergency planning
  • Threat assessment and management
  • Risk reduction measures to reduce the threat faced
  • The importance of incident management planning
  • Post attack or incident considerations
  • Security planning

Trainers will be also be issued with website links, a Tutor handbook and PowerPoint slides to help build as great a knowledge as possible on the subject matter prior to attending the classroom based element.  A micro-teach topic will be issued with the joining instructions which trainers will be required to deliver on day 1 (further topics will be allocated during the workshop).

2. Two day teaching workshop to develop the trainer's knowledge of the subject material and delivery of the key learning techniques.  This includes:

  • Core Learning activities
  • Micro teach sessions - 2 teaching sessions each day

What are the benefits of this programme?
