    The Regional Security Office personnel who live and work in hostile environments overseas now undergo special training that includes a basic high-threat operations course for DSS special agents. The training includes how to deal with complex attacks against protective details and diplomatic facilities—including in high-stress scenarios at a simulated U.S. consulate. Diplomatic Security’s Antiterrorism Assistance (ATA) program builds the counterterrorist capacity of America’s partner nations by enhancing the skills and abilities of their civilian law enforcement personnel. ATA programs are tailored to meet the needs of the host country such Ghana by developing courses and providing training on topics such as bomb detection and disposal, crime scene investigation, VIP protection, and cyber security. Participants in the ATA program have used their new skills to deter and prevent terrorist attacks, rescue hostages, dismantle terrorist cells, and apprehend terrorist operatives and leaders. Since its inception in 1983, the program has trained and assisted more than 100,000 foreign security and law enforcement personnel from more than 150 countries. Each year hundreds of police officers from member countries are invited to participate in training at the International Law Enforcement Academies in Bangkok, Budapest, Gaborone, and San Salvador. These programs offer non-U.S. mid-level civilian police officers courses on management skills and a variety of other specialized classes. Core programs are conducted by Diplomatic Security and other U.S. federal law enforcement agencies.

    I have been to Accra 5 times, met a beautiful woman and her family. Was very impressed. Now married for one year, spent our anniversary there September 13 had a fantastic time at COCO Lounge. However we are down to her visa interview with the Embassy. But the two medical facilities charge 1860ghs ($430.00 US) for a medical, and I can not get anyone from the Embassy to answer my emails about this outlandish , excessive fee charge for a medical exam. I have tried to call, yet no answer. Can`t even get no one from the State Department to give any such answer of this excessive fee for a medical exam. To the point, I really don`t know if they care. True a beautiful building and grounds, but we are not paying tax dollars for the grounds. Re-train the Ghanaian security, they are rude. I am retired law enforcement and I do know training, they need it!!!
