I think the name of the course is ERTBC. It stands for Emergency Response to Terrorism-Basic Concepts

Please correct me if I'm wrong, correct your post if I'm right.

Thanks

Its not my class so I'm no 100% sure of the name, a different instructor teaches it. The original flyer that was made has the name as "Incident Response to Terrorist Bombings - AWR-130." Really couldn't tell you if it goes by another name.

Pretty sure it's two different classes.

I took the Incident Response to Terrorist Bombing class in CT several years ago. I think those are two different classes. New Mexico Tech has several good classes in this area. I highly recomend this class to anyone who is on the fence about going. I learned a lot of interesting things that are not always covered in one place.
