training for law enforcement personnel in combating
terrorism and extremist criminal activity. This training
will ensure the delivery of the most up-to-date information,
terrorism-related topics are constantly researched and
reviewed, and timely information is offered regarding
pre-incident preparation, investigation, prevention, and
interdiction training.
This training will focus on the prevention of terrorism
