www.fema.gov/compendium.DHS has recently launched a searchable web-based “compendium of federal terrorism training”, a database originally developed by the army in 1998 and significantly updated and redesigned by FEMA’s Emergency Management Institute. This new resource provides state and local officials with a single location from which they can easily find information on terrorism training available from federal departments and agencies. Users can query specific subject areas, departments, or agencies and print out customized lists of available training.
