WYOMING LE POST CERTIFIED INSTRUCTOR COURSE - 5-day Handgun (Law Enforcement Only)

5-Day Law Enforcement Reactive Shooting Science Handgun Instructor Development

You will learn the Reactive Shooting Science doctrine and will also develop your skills as an instructor to ensure your officers are well-prepared to defend themselves and the community. This course will delve deeply into what it takes to shoot at true fighting speeds while maintaining shot placement accountability. You will learn how to diagnose shooting errors and correct them at speed without “slowing down to get your hits.” As a firearms instructor, it is your obligation to provide the best possible training for those under your charge. You will find that training in this course.


We focus not just on shooting skills but also on the knowledge and mindset to improve and gain consistent performance. Our training grounds the students solidly in Reactive Shooting Science(TM) with an emphasis on building consistently high performers with a firearm.
