The Threat of Drones

As the popularity of the UAS drone industry grows, so does the threat of nefarious actors using them to carry out terroristic and criminal acts. This class discusses how drones are quickly becoming the go-to technology to execute combat missions, deliver contraband into secured facilities, and attack rival cartel members while threatening our critical infrastructure, borders, and public safety. This course equips participants with pertinent knowledge and tools necessary to address drone threats by identifying at-risk sectors and becoming familiar with detection and mitigation technology that allows users to combat Drone threats by tracking, assessing, and responding to ill-intended UAS activity. FAA Part 107 and equipment are not required to attend this 8-hour course.

 

Cancellation Policy

The course cancellation policy requires a minimum of a 15-day prior notice from the course start date when a student will not be attending the course. The notification to not attend will be made by email through our website, and if they identify no replacement student, cancellations with less than 15-days notice will cause a department credit that can be used towards another future training event within one year from the original course date. We will charge no-shows without email notification the full course fee, even if the payment has not already been made. We offer a one-year future course credit as well for any no-show that is charged a full course fee. This policy is in effect as of June 23, 2021, and you as a representative of your agency agree to abide by this policy by registering for any course. Please contact us by email or phone if you have questions about this cancellation policy. This policy is in place because of students that register for courses and take training slots without attending training, which removes the opportunity for another officer to attend. We pay the instructors teaching these programs based on the number of officers scheduled to attend the event, and we base our travel cost including instructor pay on registration fees. This policy is considered a binding contract between BSTS LLC and the student or student agency or company.
