    FOCUS™ – Low Light Engagements with Pistol-Mounted Red Dot Optics

    Instructor: Al Bello

    October 14, 2024

     8am – 4pm

     Class will meet at: Ottawa Range, 301 W. Lafayette Street, Ottawa, IL

    Enrollment Deadline:  October 7, 2024

    Course Size:  Maximum – 8

    Course Objective

    This 8-hour program has been designed to equip police officers with an immersive training program designed to equip them with the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively use the red dot optics on their duty firearms in low-light environments. This course bridges the gap between traditional iron sights and modern red dot optics, offering practical experience and proficiency for any incident that may require the officer to use his or her firearm in low-light environments.

     

    Course Content

    Our 8-hour Low-Light Engagements with Pistol-Mounted Red Dot Optics Course is a meticulously designed program that trains police officers in the application of red dot optics on handguns in low-light environments, focusing on the principles of safety, accuracy, and effectiveness.

    This one-day training is taught by our lead instructor, Al, who has 20+ years of military experience in combat operations and firearms. All other firearms instructors working for Offset Police Training Group come from SWAT or military backgrounds. Our one-day course begins with an introduction to red dot optics in low-light environments, exploring different types of red dot sight brightness, and their effects, functionalities, advantages, and limitations in low-light environments.

    Transitioning from iron sights to red dot optics can be challenging. Thus, a key component of the course focuses on modifying grip, stance, and sight picture for effective red dot use in low-light environments. This includes acquiring the dot, tracking targets, and transitioning between targets in low-light environments. In addition to this, a new trigger pull process will be taught to students that will give them confidence and proficiency when shooting their firearms.

    The course emphasizes practical skills, with a significant portion of the day dedicated to live-fire drills. These exercises are designed to reinforce the classroom instruction, with drills focused on dot acquisition, target transitions, shooting on the move, and engaging multiple targets.

    Finally, we cover basic maintenance and troubleshooting for red dot optics. Students will learn to handle common optic malfunctions, maintain their equipment, and manage battery life for optimum performance.

    This Low Light Engagements with Pistol-Mounted Red Dot Optics Class is an excellent opportunity for officers with handguns to expand their skill set, embracing modern technology to increase accuracy, speed, and confidence in their shooting ability in low-light environments. This course will enhance officer effectiveness and proficiency.

    Enrollment Deadline:  October 9, 2024

    Course Size:  Minimum –15 Maximum – 30

     

    Course Objective

    We begin each session by honoring the sacrifices of our fallen, celebrating the law enforcement profession and asking each attendee to inwardly assess their own career. We define true “Warrior Ethos” as well as the “Guardian Mindset” as we talk about the history of women in policing and celebrate our winners and role models.  We then introduce gender-specific science and leadership principles that anyone can use to enhance their career and improve their life on and off the job. The multi-media format keeps students engaged and entertained while we provide officers, agents, dispatchers, trainers, supervisors, managers and all other personnel with a realistic view of gender differences and how these can be harnessed in both men and women to improve performance, morale, communication, relationships, and especially officer safety.

     Course Content

    • The Not Today mindset, on every call, on every shift
    • Why “survival” is minimalistic and we must train to WIN!
    • Embracing your responsibility for your own tactics, training, safety and career
    • What “Guardianship” really means to you, your career and your community
    • Why and how to embrace Warrior Ethos regardless of your career path
    • Preventing and preparing for officer ambush
    • How to leave behind the “victim-based” mentality and take control of your own future
    • Recognizing and taking advantage of the differences between men and women
    • Learning to communicate effectively with everyone in your agency and beyond
    • How to bring your family into your world to enhance off duty safety and your relationships
    • Finding and using the best female-specific equipment available
    • Learning to “lead, mentor, and inspire” others regardless of your assignment or tenure
    • How to increase your awareness and overcome the effects of “routine”
    • Dealing with pregnancy in a high risk profession
    • Assessing your own career and coming up with a plan for real success
    • How “Post Traumatic Growth” can improve your career and your life
    • How to truly embrace “the family” of law enforcement and stand together

    This training is like no other in that it encourages women, and those who train and supervise them, to look beyond the anecdotal, “that’s-the-way-we’ve-always-done-it” world of learning and utilize science, physiology and proven methods and information that will help anyone in law enforcement improve their career and their survival.   Sgt. Smith’s philosophy of “teaching by storytelling” cites real-world, inspirational examples of courageous men and women whose stories stay with the attendees long after the class has concluded. The atmosphere created in the classroom encourages students to network and gain strength and information from each other, making this session a powerful day for all involved.  This course will inspire, motivate, and encourage women to excel and to win, regardless of assignment!

    Course Objective

    The purpose and scope of this training is to highlight the historical and contemporary artifacts of the crime and terror nexus and how Human Terrain Mapping and Behavior Pattern Recognition (HTMBPR) compliments efforts to thwart criminal and terrorist activities in the United States. HTMBPR is a science-based predictive analysis and proactive decision-making model. It is based upon lessons learned from the development of Human-Behavior Pattern Recognition and Analysis programs for the Department of Defense. HTMBPR focuses on developing advanced critical thinking, the decision-making algorithm, biases, and the six layers of human behavior. It provides a framework for Law Enforcement Officers to observe, articulate, document, and defend decisions they make while performing their duties by providing officers with the knowledge, skills, and abilities to:

     Course Content

    This class is a hands-on course introducing the attendee to the various different types of evidence involving cellular devices. The course starts by explaining the various different types of cellular networks and device operating systems. The students will then begin to conduct forensic examinations on the device by using software to extract and analyze the data stored on the device. The student will then be instructed on how to obtain and analyze the cellular records, and ultimately compare the cellular records to the data extracted from the devices. Next the student will learn how to map the location-based information supplied in the cellular records. Lastly, the attendees will be instructed on how to create a forensic report and prepare to testify to their findings.
