Office for Bombing Prevention Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT)
The Department of Homeland Security, Office for Bombing Prevention (OBP) and the Center for Domestic Preparedness have partnered to provide bombing prevention awareness learning opportunities for first responders, public safety personnel, and private sector partners through Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT). VILT courses provide basic bombing prevention information ranging from IED construction and classification to the terrorist attack cycle. All on-line virtual training courses are conducted with a live instructor, using the Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN) Connect feature. Participants can connect either as a HSIN member or guest (does not require a HSIN membership). VILTs are great for participants with time availability constraints as most classes are approximately one-hour in length and can be taken independently.
Classes are open to anyone at no cost.
