Course Description

US FlagThe purpose of this course is to develop capabilities for multi-agency collaboration pertaining to sport and special event safety and
security. Through activity-based training modules, participants will enhance
their ability for planning, risk assessment, training, and exercising practices
specific to conducting sport and special events. The expectation is for
participants to return to their respective organizations and coordinate the
development of a sport and/or special event risk management and planning
process.

This course was developed in a partnership effort between The University of Southern Mississippi’s National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (USM/NCS4) and the TEEX National Emergency Response and Recovery Training Center (NERRTC).

This course meets Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) requirements for AWR-167 Sport and Special Event Risk Management and Planning course #78399.
