Business Editors

ELKRIDGE, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 23, 2003

General Physics Corporation (GP), a subsidiary of GP Strategies Corporation (NYSE:GPX), begins a new phase in its support of Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) National Domestic Preparedness Program. GP will develop and implement a new training program to support DHS' Office for Domestic Preparedness Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI). This increase in funding brings GP's total 2003 contract year award to $13.5 million in support of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) equipment training for First Responders nationwide.

In support of DHS' recently initiated UASI, which provides priority funding and support to 30 of the nation's jurisdictions with the highest levels of risk, GP has been awarded additional funding to increase the capacity of the Domestic Preparedness Equipment Technical Assistance Program (DPETAP). DPETAP provides mobile teams that conduct WMD detection equipment, Mass Casualty Personnel Decontamination, and Personal Protective Equipment training and exercises on-site in participating jurisdictions. This increased funding will enable GP to provide priority scheduling for DPETAP services to the cities included in the UASI Program.

As of September 3, 2003, GP has presented 1,561 courses to 28,257 students in 138 metropolitan jurisdictions throughout the continental U.S. in support of the Office for Domestic Preparedness.
