Students will leave this course with a thorough understanding of how to prepare, present, conduct, and supervise all facets of CQB range fire and room combat drills.

This course is a must for serious trainers who are concerned for the safety of both their SWAT officers and other personnel involved in the training. Each student must attain the required standards for weapon handling, close quarter tactical shooting, and close quarter tactical drills, to successfully complete the course.
