The Patrol Tactics Instructor course will teach the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) of patrol shift operations. It will include hands-on repetition of these TTPs and evaluate their application under opposition using NLTA equipment.
The curriculum also covers:
A review of law enforcement data related to “structure” calls for service and response. Human behavior and its impact on TTPs and decision-making under stress.
Low-light operational considerations. Participants who successfully complete all instructor-evaluated blocks will receive the necessary materials to teach Centrifuge Training’s patrol shift tactics curriculum within their own department.
