1.1 Scope: The Contractor shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, and transportation necessary to instruct Cellebrite courses for the Midwest Counterdrug Training Center (MCTC), in accordance with this statement of work (SOW).

1.2 Background: MCTC Overview. The MCTC is one of five (5) National Guard Counterdrug training programs that provides relevant curriculum focused on counternarcotics and counter transnational organized crime (CTOC). MCTC is located at the Camp Dodge Joint Maneuver Training Center (CDJMTC) in Johnston, Iowa, and features state of the art classrooms and tactical training environments. With a training region that encompasses major international trafficking routes and national border ports of entry, MCTC’s courses strive to impact the illicit flow of drugs throughout the nation.

MCTC provides courses that support National Drug Control Strategies and positively impact the performance of Federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies (LEA), community-based organizations (CBO), and military professionals directly involved in counternarcotics missions. MCTC’s emphasis remains state and local law enforcement officers. Course curriculum focuses on illicit narcotics interdiction, disruption of drug trafficking organizations, intelligence and analysis, narco-terrorism, homeland security, civil operations, and anti-drug coalition fundamentals. Each course is designed to support the objectives of the DASD-CN, Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), National Northern Border, National Southwest Border, and Caribbean Border counternarcotics strategies and to increase national security. MCTC supports federal, state, and local agencies with current and relevant training, maximized by the experiences of subject matter experts in their fields. All training events are designed to not only offer world class instruction, but to break down jurisdictional barriers and offer a unique opportunity for officials across the law enforcement and prevention spectrum to network and share ideas in person.
