Activity24/2026/ONS: Illicit drug laboratory dismantling - advanced
The aim of this onsite activity is to train participants on how to dismantle illicit drug, precursor and tableting laboratories, storage places, waste dump sites and drug/chemicals/precursor/waste transports in a safe and secure way, as well as how to conduct crime scene investigations of these sites.
The course belongs to a set of multi-step training activities on dismantling illicit laboratories. The first step concerns the studying of relevant online resources on LEEd and subsequent completion of knowledge tests. These resources include recorded webinars, eLessons and online modules. Step 2 is the course 24/2026 ‘Illicit drug laboratory dismantling: Advanced’ itself.

Combatting new forms of organised crime requires more cooperation between police and gendarmes, customs officers, border guards, judges, and prosecutors. EU institutions, agencies and Member States work together to tackle organised and serious international crime through a permanent and key instrument: the European Multidisciplinary Platform Against Criminal Threats (EMPACT).
CEPOL plays a crucial role in the EMPACT mechanism through the provision of specialised training and the identification of training needs within each common security threat. Every year, CEPOL provides a comprehensive training package for each common EU crime priority consisting of onsite, online and exchange training activities.
