PURPOSE OF COURSE: This five-day, 40-hour Instructor course has been designed to train officers as instructors to teach Rapid Deployment/Immediate Action tactics. The focus of this program will be to provide officers with knowledge, specialized tactical skills, and associated printed materials they will need to develop, implement, and teach Rapid Deployment/Immediate Action.
COURSE DESCRIPTION: Rapid Deployment/Immediate Action is the swift and immediate deployment of law enforcement resources to an ongoing, life-threatening "Active Shooter" type of situation. These situations require immediate action and the rapid deployment of patrol officers. Failure to act could have catastrophic consequences resulting in death and/or great bodily harm to innocent people. These incidents may also necessitate the immediate and rapid deployment of patrol personnel to contain and prevent the escape of an armed and dangerous offender or rescue a downed officer and/or civilian. Topics to be addressed include:
- Solo Officer Movement Techniques and Tactics
- 2 & 3 Officer Team Movement Techniques and Tactics
- Pistol & Patrol Rifle Deployment and Handling Skills
- Contact & Rescue Team Techniques and Tactics
- Room Clearing and Building Security
- Use of Force and Safety Priorities
- Small Team Leader Responsibilities
- First Responder Supervisor Responsibilities
- Tactical Emergency Medical Care – Self Aid / Buddy Aid
COURSE PREREQUISITES: While not mandatory, it is suggested that departments enroll officers in this program that have previous instructor and/or tactical-related experience. It is also very helpful if the students have completed a basic level Rapid Deployment Course. This is a dynamic, fast-paced course geared towards officers who already have a basic knowledge of firearms handling/deployment and patrol tactics.
