This 3-day course will focus heavily on the necessary individual operator, team leader, and instructor level skillsets to successfully conduct and teach Close Quarter Battle (CQB) tactical operations. This course curriculum is designed as a “train the trainer” approach with a wide range of skillsets covered from individual operator procedures to senior team leader tactical clearance flow methods.
This course will explain the major tactical differences between deliberate and dynamic CQB to help determine which method should be used for different types of law enforcement operations for the scenario they are faced with.
A wide range of individual and team leader level techniques will be taught to ensure that both junior and senior officers are prepared for a wide range of CQB operational challenges. Participants will also understand the “Hybrid” clearance concept in certain situations were deliberate and dynamic CQB tactics are morphed together to provide the officer the best chance for success in a chaotic high-risk scenario. CQB clearance methodology with each type of tactic will be explained so participants have a high level of understanding of how each tactic is implemented. CQB RSO setup and instructional training points will also be covered ensuring each participant has enhanced knowledge to take back to their respective departments and agencies.
This course is designed as a standalone training block of instruction but is complemented by the 2 Day Tactical LEO Carbine and Pistol Instructor Course held the same week on Monday and Tuesday in the same region.
