I'm looking for a solid power point to assist with an IED class I'll be giving. Does anyone have one they don't mind sharing with my unit?

Send me an email(global) to justin.r.allen.mil@mail. I taught C-IED for 2 years out of Camp Shelby MS as an OC/T. I'll send you everything I have that should help you out.

Contact JIEDO, they will have the latest TTP on IEDs

Good on you for reaching out to seek outside help. I commend you for it. However;

Your unit SOP may differ from another's, and may even differ from the Book answer. While ID procedure is usually the same, response may not be. I would get with your leadership or your training room to find out what your SOP is and build your own PowerPoint based off of that.

Option 2 is to simply not use PowerPoint, and come up with another way of doing your briefing. While PP is a wonderful tool, it gets old and tiresome, and it helps to shake things up. Maybe run a METT-TC course with mock IED's set up, after giving a briefing off of an easel (the way you would do a refresher course in the field).

I am not really a fan of reusing powerpoints. What I will say is how to use them to build on your knowledge. When I have taught classes you really have to make it your own. You have to develop them the best way you with the current TTPs for the region that is applicable to your reason requiring the class. It makes no sense to focus on TTPs in Iraq that were used in 2007 when you are going to Kuwait. The time and region are wrong. But you have to use what you can find to build your own lesson plan. This way you will teach yourself the material you will be using as a guide. Whatever you just don't recycle a pre-made powerpoint. This is the one time sustainability and environmental concerns should have not value.

Sorry, all information I have would be very outdated.

I'd bet if you tagged 89D and EOD, a lot more SME's would be able to help you. . .Wait. . . Why not contact your local EOD unit ?

Go to the CALL website, there are some good ones that are pretty current there.

Funny story: last time I received C-IED training for 1st Army, one of the slides featured a picture I took of a 122mm shell disguised as a piece of curb. That made for an interesting conversation.
Don't do this at home. I was WAY to close when I took the picture.

Contact these guys at Ft Dix

1-307th Training Support Battalion executes Counter Insurgency (COIN), Cultural Awareness (CA),Counter Improvised Explosive Device (C-IED), Police Mentorship Training (PMT), Law and Order (L&O) and Collective Task Operations Lane (CTOL) training IAW FORSCOM SWA, AFRICOM & USAMPS guidance for Army Reserve and National Guard component, Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard units in preparation for deployment in support of Overseas Contingency Operations."

It's definitely always good to check out the TM/FM etc. first to familiarize yourself with the technical knowledge etc.

“If you make a mistake on this..it’ll be the last mistake you’ll ever make.!”

Death by PowerPoint...

C ied awareness app by ATOM and CAT UXO is a good application and interesting lessons. I advise you to try.

i would call the Oshkosh national guard 1157 trans and check with ssg helbing.

I hope you got what you were looking for and that I'm not to late in commenting but giving and IED class via PowerPoint can be dry as hell and even though it's maybe one of the most important classes we could receive people still lose interest. Attempt if you can to pull on the lessons and apply it to real and likely scenarios those in your unit might find themselves in.

Get into contact wit your local EOD shop and see if they have a SSG OR SFC to maybe help you out together a fresh power point using current ttp's.

Sorry, SPC(P) Samuel T., I can't help you with that.
