The curriculum also includes donning and doffing of personal protective equipment;  Site Safety Plans; Tactics, Techniques & Procedures; and planning considerations. While the curriculum is primarily intended for law enforcement special operations officers, personnel in community-based organizations may find information in this course useful during encounters with illicit drug manufacturing.
