TRANSCRIPT
November is National Critical Infrastructure Security & Resilience Month
In celebration of this very important awareness and the developing Critical Infrastructure and Key
Resources (CIKR) Program for the State of Oregon, the Oregon Department of Justice/Criminal Justice
Division is hosting a series of classes for the promotion of Infrastructure Protection (IP). These classes

providers with a common goal; protecting the way of life for Oregonians across the state. In support of
these efforts, all IP professionals are welcome to register for the courses hosted by the Oregon
DOJ/Criminal Justice - CIKR Program.

The purpose of this course is to prepare participants to conduct a Jurisdictional Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA). Participants will identify threats and hazards of jurisdictional concern, give those threats and hazards context, establish capability targets, and determine how to apply the THIRA results.The course will assist local emergency responders and stakeholders in identifying the critical infrastructure that may be at risk in their jurisdiction. By using the THIRA process, stakeholders will develop a strategy to allocate resources and establish mitigation and preparedness activities. THIRA-informed planning is consistent with and expands on nationally accepted emergency management standards as the basis for planning across the mission areas of prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery.

CRITICAL ASSET RISK MANAGEMENTMGT-315
The Critical Asset Risk Management course helps participants answer those questions by teaching critical components of risk management. Through a combination of lecture, facilitated discussion, and group activities, participants will learn how threats, vulnerabilities, and consequences determine risk, and are given an opportunity to practice the fundamentals of conducting vulnerability assessments by conducting on-site assessments of select local facilities. Additionally they will identify potential mitigation measuresassociatedwiththeirfindingsandworktogethertodevelopandpresentariskassessmentreport.
Individuals completing this course, in combination with AWR-213, MGT-315, and MGT-414, are awarded theTEEXInfrastructureProtectionCertificate.
