SUMMARY:FRI 2017 Fire-Rescue International
DESCRIPTION:IAFC’s Fire-Rescue International FRI 2017 annual conference and exhibition will be held July 26-29\, 2017 in Charlotte\, North Carolina. \nFRI has provided senior-level leadership training to fire chiefs for 140 years. Join 10\,000+ fire and emergency service leaders at this leading event. \nExpected educational programs include: \nOfficer Development Program (ODP) \nThe IAFC’s Officer Development Program (ODP) was designed to prepare officers at various levels for future career advancement while giving them the leadership skills to excel in their current position. \nThe program was designed to be meet Job Performance Requirements (JPRs) as outlined in NFPA 1021 and follows leadership standards published in the Officer Development Handbook. \nChief Officer Leadership Symposium (CHIEF) \nThe Chief Officer Leadership Symposium program consists of two levels\, one for those new to the role and the other for more veteran officers. Attendees learn from instructors with years of fire and emergency service and life experience in areas such as community risk reduction\, human resources\, operations\, and health and safety. CHIEF learning objectives support JPRs outlined in NFPA 1021 (Fire Officer III and IV) and the IAFC Self-Development Dimensions. \nExecutive Chief Officer Leadership Symposium (ECO) \nThe Executive Chief Officer Leadership Symposium is made up of two levels preparing chief officers looking to move into the role of fire chief in the future. The courses in this program focus on marketing within your community\, research and data\, mutual aid\, and consolidation and mergers. Attendees get the opportunity to learn from business executives and successful chiefs who share insight about how to excel as a leader at the highest level. \nHigh-Impact Training (HIT) at FRI 2017 \nHIT will focus on Stress Exposure Training (SET) a high impact\, fast paced\, hands-on class which gives the participant the ability to understand the connection of the mind and body to the physical and environmental stressors found on the fireground. Participants will understand the effects stress has on an individual’s performance and decision making ability. This training program exposes participants to simulated stressors and increases their baseline stress awareness level. The goal is to prepare participants to the real-world stressors found in emergency incidents. \nPlease visit the FRI 2017 website for more information and registration.

SUMMARY:2017 First Responder Electronic Jamming Exercise
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) is hosting the 2017 First Responder Electronic Jamming Exercise to assess the effectiveness of jamming mitigation technologies and techniques\, tactics and procedures. \nThe 2017 exercise will take place from July 17 – 22\, 2017\, at Idaho National Laboratory in Idaho Falls\, Idaho. \nDHS S&T is seeking to evaluate technology solutions that identify\, locate and mitigate the impact of jamming of communications and position\, navigation and timing systems used by law enforcement and public safety organizations (i.e.\, GPS\, land mobile radio systems [VHF\, UHF\, 700/800 MHz] and commercial wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi or cellular systems). These technology solutions should make existing public safety communications systems more resilient in the presence of jammers and spectral interference. \nPlease view our coverage of the event here: DHS to Evaluate Solutions to First Responder Communication Jamming.

SUMMARY:Insider Threat Summit 2017
DESCRIPTION:The Defense Strategies Institute’s Insider Threat Summit 2017 will take place April 4\, 2017 in Alexandria\, VA. \nThe DSI one day Insider Threat Summit is designed as an educational and training “Town Hall” forum\, where thought leaders and key policy-makers across DHS\, DoD\, IC\, Federal and State Agencies\, Industry and Academia can come together for actionable discussions and debate. \nThis event focuses on policy\, operations\, and technology designed to detect and defend against insider threat. Presentations from IC Agencies\, NCSC and industry leaders are also on the agenda. \nInsider threat represents perhaps the most complex threat that Government Agencies face. National Security Agencies are effective at limiting threats during the hiring process through extensive background checks and evaluation of lifestyle. Following successful screening\, employees are granted a level of trust and access. \nCircumstances that lead to insider misconduct can often be very personal and difficult for an agency to detect.  Very few applicants for National Security positions begin with an intent to do harm to the organization. This makes it nearly impossible to identify who might become a threat to the agency in the future. Most cases of insider misconduct happen long after the initial hire date. \nThis event will aims to provide best practices\, policies\, and technology to improve the US Government’s ability to prevent and mitigate insider threat. \nHighlighted topics include: \n\nBuilding and Ensuring a Trusted Workforce\nLeveraging Technology and Advanced Computing to Detect Behavior Anomalies before a Malicious Act Occurs\nImplementing an Insider Threat Program\nMonitoring Employee Behavior to Identify Early Indicators of Possible Insider Threats\nHardening JIE Against Insider Threats\nBalancing Civil Rights with the Need for Organizational Security\nMitigating the Effects of a Malicious Event\n\nPlease visit the Insider Threat Summit 2017 website for registration and more information.
