This 2-Day instructor level course will give students the knowledge and skills to deploy ballistic shields with great mobility, flexibility, and offensive accuracy without risk of malfunctions to the weapon system. As instructors, students will learn to adjust and deploy the shield in any environment, defeating threats without hesitation and with conviction. Student instructors will learn how to manipulate weapon systems and fix malfunctions with both hands and fight in an offensive mode with both primary and secondary weapon systems incorporating standing, kneeling, and prone shooting platforms as well as extensive movement drills.

There will be an added focus on the employment options of the Eagle's Perch, commonly referred to as the "EP-40". A mobile officer safety barricade system offering unmatched shield mobility and deployment options.

Previous to course presentation, administrative qualifications will be completed through your state regulatory agencies (POST, COLES, etc) for training credit, cost reimbursement, etc.. as is determined by your individual state standard. 

Although Armourer's Choice will provide shields to each student for this training experience, attendees are encouraged to bring agency issued shields for comparative purposes and value.
