CBRN Training Modules

Level 1

Level 1 is a foundational awareness program designed for personnel who are not directly responsible for intervention in CBRN incidents but may be the first to recognize a situation or may be indirectly exposed to risk. The objective at this stage is not technical response, but rather the ability to recognize CBRN threats, apply personal protective measures, and prevent secondary risks arising from incorrect actions.

The training covers the fundamental differences between CBRN categories, typical indicators, reporting chains, and the correct initial actions through tabletop scenario exercises.

Duration: Half day (3–3.5 hours)

Level 2

Level 2 is an operational training program designed for personnel actively involved in field operations or critical tasks. At this stage, awareness alone is insufficient; proper use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), area management, and team coordination become central components.

The training incorporates realistic field scenarios and drills, aiming to ensure that personnel can respond to CBRN incidents in a controlled, coordinated, and safe manner.

 

 

Duration: 2 days (14–16 hours)

Level 3

Level 3 is an advanced field specialization program designed for personnel assigned to high-risk facilities or complex CBRN scenarios. At this level, basic awareness and standard PPE usage are no longer sufficient; advanced equipment, detection systems, and multi-team operational management are required.

The training includes advanced PPE application, detection and sampling procedures, and full-scale field exercises.

 

 


Duration: 4 days (32–36 hours)

Level 4

Level 4 represents the highest level of CBRN training and is designed for healthcare professionals and first receivers who are the initial point of contact during a CBRN incident. At this stage, the most critical factor is that the first point of contact carries the highest level of risk. An incorrect initial action may result in contamination spreading to healthcare facilities and the surrounding environment.

The training focuses on simultaneously managing clinical response and field safety.

 

 

Duration: 5 days (40 hours)
