Response Skills
While the threat of nuclear incidents has been a reality for decades, the risk of life-threatening nuclear incidents has been steadily on the rise in recent years. With multiple wars among nuclear powers and the potential use of innovative delivery systems, the nuclear threat landscape is changing before our eyes. Many CBRNE training programs often lack the dedicated focus on the highly technical skills required for effective nuclear incident response. ASG’s new Radiant Training Suite of courses will fill this training gap.
How can communities, responders, medical facilities, militaries, and governments prepare
for the emerging nuclear threats of our day?
