This
course is designed for patrol officers from smaller agencies who may have
to face an active shooter crisis. Participants
will learn how to organize contact teams, how to quickly locate and neutralize
threats, and how to rescue wounded officers and civilians, if necessary.
Instruction will focus on effective patrol tactics utilizing contemporary rapid deployment techniques. Students are required to wear full duty uniforms during the training
"Most of the school shootings
have happened in small rural and suburban towns. The need for small town law
enforcement to have this training is every bit as important, if not more
important, than for officers in larger jurisdictions."
