International Trainers Laud Western Dakota Tech for Top-Notch Training Facility
While many college students utilize Spring Break to relax and recharge before finishing up the school year, four Law Enforcement and four Fire Science senior students participated in rigorous Active Threat Integrated Response Course (ATIRC) training alongside local law enforcement and EMS professionals, at Western Dakota Tech, March 6-8.
Trainers with the National Center for Biomedical Research and Training (NCBRT), based out of Louisiana State University, in Baton Rouge, provided the course funded through a federal grant obtained by Pennington County Emergency Management. When Western Dakota Tech was asked if the specialized training could take place in the college’s new Public Safety Training Center, the college readily agreed asking that students also be given the opportunity to participate.
