The Commanding Officer of the Canadian Joint Incident Response Unit, National Defence, and his staff gather in a state-of-the-art Biosciences lab in Loyalist College’s new Sustainable Skills, Technology and Life Sciences Centre. The team of Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear Operators (CBRN), an occupation that was introduced to Canadian Forces in 2009, have recently completed all five College credits required to complete their second level of the CBRN program. The partnership with Loyalist provided the Operators with entry-level training, including Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Microbiology, which will enable them to bridge technical response with scientific assessment.
