Pre túto komunitu EOD COE zorganizovalo<br />
v roku 2010 po prvýkrát podujatie<br />
„NATO EOD Demonstrations and Trials“, ktoré<br />
sa s podporou Divízie budúcich bezpečnostných<br />
hrozieb NATO a pod odbornou gesciou<br />
Ministerstva obrany SR a národného riaditeľa<br />
pre vyzbrojovanie opätovne uskutoční 18.<br />

Rady NATO – Rusko na tému „Úloha EOD<br />
v prostredí po roku 2014“.<br />
Cieľom podujatia je poskytnúť spoločnú<br />
platformu spoločnostiam, výskumným a vývojovým<br />
inštitúciám a orgánom NATO, aby<br />
prezentovali svoje potreby a najnovšie technologické<br />
riešenia pri zdokonaľovaní EOD spôsobilostí.<br />
V programe podujatia je konferencia,<br />
dva semináre, dynamické a statické ukážky<br />
najnovších robotov, prístrojov, metód a postupov<br />
pri detekcii munície a výbušnín. Účasť<br />

The main role of the Centre<br />
of Excellence EOD (EOD<br />
COE) is to promote NATO’s<br />
transformation and operational efforts;<br />
to provide specialist expertise and support<br />
to the benefit of developing tactics,<br />
methods and procedures in disposal of<br />
explosives; to constantly monitor technological<br />
developments; and to improve<br />
relations, interoperability and practical cooperation<br />
with partners, NATO’s command<br />
elements, NATO member states, and international<br />
organizations in the field of EOD<br />
by providing the latest information and<br />
developing capabilities, with the aim of<br />
preparing technologically advanced, interoperable<br />
and well trained EOD experts for<br />
the entire spectrum of NATO operations.<br />
But to achieve this, the first condition was<br />
to build the national EOD capabilities of<br />
the Slovak Armed Forces in the field.<br />
The Centre was festively activated on 2<br />
October 2007 in Nováky. It fulfilled tasks in<br />
the international domain (EOD education<br />
and training and information exchange) and<br />
in the national domain (testing and controlling<br />
quality of stored ammunition and explosives).<br />
On 1 January 2010, EOD COE was<br />
divided into two components: the National<br />
EOD Centre in Nováky and the International<br />
EOD COE in Trenčín.<br />
In May 2010, the Chiefs of the General Staff<br />
from Slovakia, the Czech Republic, France,<br />
Hungary and Romania signed a memorandum<br />
of understanding in Brussels. Poland<br />
became a contributing country. In January<br />
2011, the ACT assessment team confirmed<br />
that the Centre had fulfilled all the accreditation<br />
criteria. Subsequently, the North<br />
Atlantic Council confirmed the status of the<br />
COE EOD in Trenčín as a NATO institution by<br />
certifying the Centre as the first international<br />
military organization in the Slovak Republic.<br />
The Centre was officially inaugurated on 17<br />
May 2011.<br />
Since its inception, the EOD COE actively contributed<br />
to the fulfilment of NATO’s action<br />
plan in the field of C-IED and NATO's Defence<br />
Against Terrorism Programme of Work (DAT<br />
PoW) Members of the Centre are actively<br />
involved in the activities of NATO working<br />
groups, act as guarantors for processing<br />
EOD terminology, they submit proposals<br />
and review Allied publications in the area of<br />
EOD. In May 2011, EOD COE conducted an<br />
initial training of staff officers in the Czech<br />
Republic, Poland, Bosnia and Herzegovina,<br />
Finland, France, Hungary and Slovakia. In<br />
November 2011, the Centre provided, in<br />
cooperation with France, training for EOD<br />
officers from Bosnia and Herzegovina, dispatching<br />
a mobile training group. This year<br />
the Centre is scheduled to conduct: Initial<br />
EOD Staff Officer Training (IEODSOT); Former<br />
Warsaw Pact Ammunition Course (FWPAC)<br />
EOD<br />
Home-made Explosive Devices (HMEC);<br />
Ammunition Risk EOD Management Course<br />
(AREMC) in line with NATO norms; EOD/IEDD<br />
Seminar.<br />
EOD COE unifies NATO efforts in the field<br />
of explosives disposal and builds a community<br />
with common interests with NATO<br />
HQs and institutions and individual countries,<br />
as well as international governmental<br />
organizations, manufacturing, research<br />
and educational institutions. For this community,<br />
in 2010 the EOD COE for the first<br />
time organized “NATO EOD Demonstrations<br />
and Trials”. The event, supported by the<br />
NATO Future Security Threats Division, the<br />
Ministry of Defence of the Slovak Republic<br />
and the National Armaments Minister, will<br />
be organized again on 18 and 20 September<br />
2012 at EXPO in Trenčín. As part of this, the<br />
NATO-Russia Council will gather to discuss<br />
the ‘Role of EOD in the Environment after<br />
2014’.<br />
The goal of the event is to provide a common<br />
platform to companies, research and<br />
development institutions and NATO organs,<br />
so that they can present their needs and the<br />
latest technological solutions in an effort to<br />
improve EOD capabilities. The programme<br />
will feature a conference, two seminars,<br />
dynamic and static demonstrations of new<br />
robots, instruments, methods and procedures<br />
for detection of ammunition and explosives.<br />
The participation was confirmed<br />
by subject-matter experts, companies and<br />
firms furthering technical and technological<br />
advances in EOD.<br />
