Tactical Flashlight Instructor

FBI Uniform Crime Reports consistently indicate the majority of officer involved shootings occur between 18:00 and 02:00, under reduced light or in conditions where no light is present. Human night vision is poor so we depend heavily on artificial light in conditions with little or no light. For various reasons, very few agencies issue pistol mounted lights to every officer. Firearms instructors receive little if any instruction in the tactical use of their flashlight and few departments have any kind of ongoing reduced light firearms or tactical light training.

 

Popow v. Margate mandated that police officers must be trained in the conditions they are likely to work including conditions of dim or no light. Every law officer is likely to encounter reduced light conditions during their shift whether it is a dark basement on the day watch or working during the hours of darkness. Tactical Flashlight Instructor was designed to meet the needs of the law enforcement trainer to create and integrate realistic training with sound tactics designed around modern tactical illumination tools for their training program.

 

This course will not teach you how to be an instructor. Prior basic firearms/DT instructor level training is required as a pre-requisite.
