Homeland Security: Understanding the Enemy
New Roles, New Challenges

The War on Terrorism will continue well into the future and the Homeland Security efforts in response to this war will involve approximately 200,000 Federal employees. Some of those employees will be assigned to Homeland Security duties on a full-time basis, but many will have new duties added to their current assignments.

The primary objective of this seminar is to provide information on the nature of terrorism and the specific threats to the United States. The seminar is designed primarily for Federal managers and specialists who have responsibilities in areas related to terrorism, counteraction, or Homeland Security. The program includes specific information on international threats, the threat from domestic anti-Government groups, and threats from special interest extremist organizations. In addition, discussions focus on Homeland Security approaches developed by other countries and the challenges facing America.
