Overview:

On behalf of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) and Sandia National Laboratories Global Chemical & Biological Security (SNL/GCBS), we are honored to have the opportunity to facilitate this training event.  This is the first of a four-part training program to expand our network of biorisk management trainers in North Africa.  This training is designed to provide human and animal lab personnel with a foundational level of training in order to gain skills related to lab biorisk management.  Objectives for this training event include:

  • Introduce biorisk management topics through foundational level training. The training will aim to develop participants’ understanding of BRM concepts to include risk characterization, risk mitigation, biosecurity and risk & hazard communication
  • Provide a basis of learning and a platform for developing BRM programs at individual labs.

The desired outcome of this four-part engagement will be a strong core team of collaborative trainers that is capable of designing, developing, and delivering biorisk management training in an independent manner.
