During June and July 2017 (22nd of June till 21st of July 2017), an RSHDL officer attended a 4-week IMAS Level 3 Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Course in Skive, Denmark. The course is originally designed by DCA for its own employees, but some slots have been allocated also for participants from other mine action organizations. This course aimed to bring students up to IMAS EOD Level 3, thus allowing those who successfully pass the course to be certified by Danish Demining Centre (DANDEC). This course contributed to the development of the following skills;
ü Standard Operation Procedure (SOP)
