Agriculture Emergency Responder Training
(AgERT)
The WMD Basic Agricultural Emergency
Response Training course is a 32-hour
course that provides the responder with
an overview of agro terrorism and
Chemical, Biological, Radiological,
Nuclear, or Explosive (CBRNE) hazards,
relative to their potential impact upon
agricultural resources and the
agricultural community.
Hands-on
training provides knowledge and skills
in selecting and using Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE), conducting
decontamination, using survey and
monitoring equipment, and preserving the
crime scene. The course culminates with
a scenario-oriented, task-driven,
hands-on practical exercise involving a
response to a hazardous event in an
agricultural setting.
