We successfully completed a two-day Curriculum Review Board that evaluated and enhanced the Counter Improvised Explosive Device (C-IED) Training of Trainers(TOT) course.
This review ensured that the course content remains relevant, responsive, and effective in addressing the evolving threat posed by Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) globally.
CRB 2
As IEDs continue to be a growing threat to peacekeepers, civilians, and security forces, the review process focused on refining the curriculum to better equip trainers with the skills and knowledge necessary to deliver impactful, high-quality instruction.
