The School of Environmental & Emergency Management of the University of Findlay (Ohio) will present a live training webcast instructing the emergency response community on dealing with clandestine methamphetamine labs.
The 60 minute live ALERT Webcast will be a full-blown simulation of the verification, entry, arrest, econtamination and medical response that ensues from the report of a suspected meth “cooking lab”. Actual Police, Emergency Medical Technicians, HAZMAT specialists and social service providers will conduct the simulation.
The live webcast will take place on Thursday, April 6 at 3:00 p.m. EST. A PC with speakers/soundcard and broadband Internet access are all that is needed to participate. There is no cost to participate in the training, but advance registration is required. Registration is done on-line at this link:

Members of the press are invited to watch the webcast production “behind the scenes” to see how the ground-breaking ALERT Emergency Response Training Webcasts are conducted.
