    FOCUS™ Vehicle Fighting Tactics

    Instructor: Al Bello

    September 24-25, 2026

     8am – 4pm

     Class will meet at: Tazewell County Sheriff’s Office Range, 21302 Illinois Route 9, Tremont IL

    Enrollment Deadline: September 17, 2026

    Course Size: Max 16

    Course Objective

    One With The Gun® – Vehicle Fighting Tactics is a 16-hour, two-day, live-fire tactical firearms course built specifically for sworn law enforcement personnel. The course blends classroom discussion, dry rehearsal, demonstration, and live-fire practical exercises to teach officers how to think, move, communicate, and fight effectively in and around vehicles. Students will learn the ballistic realities of common vehicle components, the tactical strengths and limitations of vehicles as cover, the mechanics of firing from inside a vehicle, and the methods by which two-officer teams can survive and respond to an ambush initiated while they remain seated inside the car.

    The course is also built to satisfy practical Illinois mandate alignment where vehicle tactics, high-risk traffic stop considerations, cover, concealment, time, use-of-force law, and de-escalation principles intersect. Students will work through both individual and partner-based problems involving in-car engagement, exit-to-cover problems, pillar-based defensive shooting, external vehicle fighting positions, communication under ambush, and post-engagement tactical organization. The overall objective is to produce officers who are more survivable, more deliberate, and more tactically competent when forced to fight in and around vehicles.

    2. Improve student understanding of the ballistic and structural realities of vehicles, including which portions of the vehicle offer better protection and which do not.

     Class will meet at: Peru PD, 2650 Peoria Street, Peru, IL 

    Enrollment Deadline:  September 21, 2026

    Course Size:  Minimum 15 – Maximum – 25

    Bring a charged laptop all handouts will be provided on thumb drive

    Course Objective

    This four-day, 32-hour program has been designed by expert practitioners from the fields of juvenile law, social work, and law enforcement to assist recently assigned juvenile officers in the legal, moral, and social issues that they will encounter in their positions as juvenile specialists. Public Act 88-7 requires “Juvenile Officers” to complete a course as prescribed by the Board. This course meets that requirement.

    Course Overview:

    The focus of this course is primarily to provide police officers with the skills, knowledge, and abilities needed to perform their duties as juvenile officers. In this unique role, juvenile officers not only enforce laws, but also respond compassionately and effectively to family problems. They serve as protectors of society by investigating criminal acts for findings of delinquency and as supporters of youths by helping them to grow out of adolescence without experiencing the stigma of police involvement.

    Specific topics to be addressed in this program include the following:

    • The role and responsibility of the Juvenile Officer
    • Gaining perspectives on the assignment
    • Child development
    • Child psychology
    • Communicating with adolescents and parents
    • Adolescents and electronic influences
    • Intervention and prevention strategies
    • Article I of the Juvenile Court Act: General provisions
    • Article II of the Juvenile Court Act: Abused, neglected, and dependent minors
    • Article III of the Juvenile Court Act: Minors requiring authoritative intervention
    • Article IV of the Juvenile Court Act: Addicted Minors
    • Article V of the Juvenile Court Act: Delinquent minors
    • Psychodynamics of child abuse
    • The role of law enforcement and social services
    • Protective custody • Investigative techniques
    • Preparing child abuse cases for court
    • Sexual abuse and sexual exploitation investigations

    Course Goals:

    The goals of this course are to make officers particularly aware of the demographics of the burgeoning youth population, which is becoming increasingly more vulnerable to gang recruitment, violent crime, sexual exploitation, alcohol, and drug abuse, and carrying weapons. Officers will become uniquely aware of these problems and the needs facing the children, adolescents, young adults, and parents that they will be serving in their capacity as juvenile officers. Throughout the program, participation in supportive networks such as Juvenile Officer Associations, Gang Task Forces, and high school liaison programs will be discussed and encouraged.

    Course Objective

    This four-day, 32-hour program has been designed by expert practitioners from the fields of juvenile law, social work, and law enforcement to assist recently assigned juvenile officers in the legal, moral, and social issues that they will encounter in their positions as juvenile specialists. Public Act 88-7 requires “Juvenile Officers” to complete a course as prescribed by the Board. This course meets that requirement.

    Course Overview:

    The focus of this course is primarily to provide police officers with the skills, knowledge, and abilities needed to perform their duties as juvenile officers. In this unique role, juvenile officers not only enforce laws, but also respond compassionately and effectively to family problems. They serve as protectors of society by investigating criminal acts for findings of delinquency and as supporters of youths by helping them to grow out of adolescence without experiencing the stigma of police involvement.

    Specific topics to be addressed in this program include the following:

    • The role and responsibility of the Juvenile Officer
    • Gaining perspectives on the assignment
    • Child development
    • Child psychology
    • Communicating with adolescents and parents
    • Adolescents and electronic influences
    • Intervention and prevention strategies
    • Article I of the Juvenile Court Act: General provisions
    • Article II of the Juvenile Court Act: Abused, neglected, and dependent minors
    • Article III of the Juvenile Court Act: Minors requiring authoritative intervention
    • Article IV of the Juvenile Court Act: Addicted Minors
    • Article V of the Juvenile Court Act: Delinquent minors
    • Psychodynamics of child abuse
    • The role of law enforcement and social services
    • Protective custody • Investigative techniques
    • Preparing child abuse cases for court
    • Sexual abuse and sexual exploitation investigations

    Course Goals:

    The goals of this course are to make officers particularly aware of the demographics of the burgeoning youth population, which is becoming increasingly more vulnerable to gang recruitment, violent crime, sexual exploitation, alcohol, and drug abuse, and carrying weapons. Officers will become uniquely aware of these problems and the needs facing the children, adolescents, young adults, and parents that they will be serving in their capacity as juvenile officers. Throughout the program, participation in supportive networks such as Juvenile Officer Associations, Gang Task Forces, and high school liaison programs will be discussed and encouraged.
