Something exciting is on the horizon.

USBTA was proud to participate in a working visit to the Zhytomyr Academy of Police in Ukraine this week alongside representatives from UNOPS and the OSCE.

Our mission is to advance the profession of bomb technicians and foster collaboration across the global EOD community. This visit was a direct reflection of that mission in action.

We observed their training, engaged with academy leadership, and participated in a roundtable on how to best support their continued professional development. These conversations are how our professional standards travel, how we build trust, and how the global bomb tech community grows stronger together.

Thank you to the OSCE and UNOPS for organizing this visit and to the Zhytomyr Academy of Police for welcoming us.
