This 4 day, 32-hour instructor course has been designed to train Police Officers as instructors to teach MACTAC / Urban Tactics skill sets. The focus of the course is to teach attendees specialized tactical patrol skills that can be employed when officers are faced with heavily armed, violent offenders in an urban environment. The emphasis of this course will be the swift and immediate deployment of law enforcement resources when the situation requires immediate action against armed offenders, be they a lone wolf, a pair, a group or multiple groups of armed offenders. The course will highlight the MACTAC (Multiple Assault Counter Terrorist Action Capabilities) techniques, tactics and curriculum.
