Description

This two-evening course addresses low-light issues for law enforcement & governmental agencies that work in this environment and how agency instructors can train for them. Evening #1 starts with human factors and legal considerations. The class moves on to using hand-held and weapon-mounted lights before concluding with judgmental drills and practical application. 

Evening #2 begins with a practical application exercise before shifting to patrol rifles in the low-light environment. 

The class will emphasize the importance of target discrimination vs. target illumination. Also, the student will understand how ambient and direct lighting can hinder an officer's ability to see in low-light settings. After completing the course, the student will be able to demonstrate and employ hand-held and weapon-mounted light skills as well as being able to present this material to patrol officers.
