In contrast to FY04, no conditional <br />approvals in advance of an independent third-party subject matter expert (SME) review <br />will be granted in FY05 for use of ODP funds to develop or institutionalize non-ODP <br />courses. ODP will require states and urban areas to adhere to a streamlined course <br />approval process. Please see Appendix E: Overview of Approval Process for Non-ODP <br />Developed Courses for more information. Courses will either be approved or <br />disapproved following this review process. <br /> <br />Attending Other Federal Courses Related to CBRNE Terrorism. States are no <br />longer required to submit requests for personnel to attend certain Federal courses that <br />fall within the ODP mission scope of preparing state and local personnel to prevent, <br />respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism involving CBRNE weapons. In lieu of <br />requesting approval, states and urban areas will be required to submit information on all <br />federal training they are supporting with ODP funds via the Training section of the ODP <br />website (hlto:llwww.oio.usdoj.qov/odo/traininq.htm).This information will consist of <br />course title, level of the training, the training provider, the date of the course, the <br />number of individuals to be trained, and the sponsoring jurisdiction. <br /> <br />· All NIMS training approved by the NIMS Integration Center (NIC) is eligible for <br />use of ODP funds. <br /> <br />III <br />U <br />Z <br />~ <br />5 <br />Cl <br />~ <br />Cl <br />o <br />II: <br />a. <br /> <br />Several broad categories of courses will automatically be included in the list of eligible <br />federal courses: <br /> <br />· All Incident Command System (ICS) training offered through the National Fire <br />Academy and the Emergency Management Institute is eligible for use of ODP <br />funds. This guidance applies to resident training, train-the-trainer, and field <br />delivery of courses. <br /> <br />A list of federal courses that fall within the ODP mission scope is included in Appendix <br />F: Federal Training Course List. <br /> <br />These courses must build additional capabilities that 1) meet a specific need identified <br />through the homeland security assessment process, and 2) comport with the State or <br />Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy. <br /> <br />Federal funds must be used to supplement-not supplant-existing funds that have <br />been appropriated for the same purpose. Thus, if the state or urban area has already <br />budgeted for personnel to attend courses, ODP funds may only be used to send <br />additional individuals above and beyond those previously budgeted. <br /> <br />DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY I OFFICE FOR DOMESTIC PREPAREDNESS <br /> <br />32 <br />
