Lost Person Behavior (LPB) Class Registration
Understanding of lost person behavior is an important element for the planning of search and rescue missions. This course will present the most recent advances in lost person behavior with Robert Koester’s latest research, and new behavior categories crucial to solving the mystery of where to look for a lost person.

   - Study planning and operational considerations for managing search resources
   - Learn about dozens of missing person category specifics
   - Use actual search mission table-top exercises to apply learning points

Classroom sessions will incorporate table-top exercises with lecture topics. The exercises are designed to allow students to practice and develop efficient deployment strategies for search resources. Participants will go into details of actual search missions and the profiles of different subject groups, in addition to hands-on experience with creating reflex tasks and focused investigation questions. From abductions to lost workers, subjects with dementia, aircraft and more, a selection from a total of 41 different subject categories will be presented.

Registration is required and limited to twenty students.
