WP1: MANAGEMENT AND COMMUNICATION

WP1 aims to ensure compliance with the foreseen results, monitor risks, anticipate criticalities and design solutions to emerging problems whilst ensuring smooth day-to-day running of the project and its operational EU-wide nature.

WP2: CATEGORISATION OF CBRN EVENTS AND ASSESSMENT

WP2: Aim of this WP is to agree on an updated categorization of CBRNe events and on a set of events and feasible scenarios functional for the performance of training activities targeting CI operators under this pilot project (i.e. railway station, airport, hospital, energy facility, nuclear plant).

WP3: PREPARATION OF TRAINING CURRICULA AND INTERVENTION KIT

WP3: Aim of this WP is to prepare a standardised training programme (STP) with tailored parts dedicated to identified CI sectors (health, energy, nuclear, rail transport, airport) and perform the purchase and distribution of equipment (intervention kits) to pilot CIs operators.

WP4: PILOT JOINT TRAINING PROGRAMME

WP4: Aim of this WP is the transfer of CBRNe response capacities to identified staff of 10 pilot CIs operators, targeting approximately 100 participants (10 for each CI of which 8 operators and 2 incident commanders) to be trained on first response techniques for the effective maintenance of the facility (providing minimum services based on the gravity of the event).

WP5: REAL LIFE EXERCISES

WP5 aims to scale-up the competences acquired by operators and incident commanders of the pilot Critical Infrastructures by putting them through real-life simulations. This WP will provide third level training, a testing environment for new processes, competencies and equipment and a monitoring and evaluation system to assess the impact of the training programme offered by the RESIST pilot project.

Level 3 training will see the involvement of a pool of supervisors from SAFE, ENEA, University of Rome Tor Vergata and the Institute for International Affairs.

WP6: PROPOSAL FOR CBRN RESILIENCE LABEL WP6 aims to promote the harmonisation of education and training for CBRNe first responders across European countries in response to the rapid evolution of e-learning based curricula and training methodologies (high-fidelity and live simulations) while paving the way to the proposal of a “CBRN Resilience Label” at EU level (CEN, CENELEC and ETSI).
