NV Operator

$850 per person | 3 Days

  • Our 3-Day Night Vision Operator course is designed to provide law enforcement officers and agents with the foundational knowledge and skills needed to use night vision devices safely and effectively. It is crafted to address two key realities specific to domestic enforcement operations:
    1. varied and unpredictable light conditions; and
    2. the presence of innocent bystanders.
  • We will focus on selecting appropriate tools, techniques, and tactics in order to ‘win the light fight’ and on assessing and precisely engaging threats at ‘combat speed’. The course includes classroom presentation, live fire drills, and non-lethal training ammunition (NLTA) drills and exercises. NLTA conversion kits and ammunition are included in the price.

WHY TELLURIC??

INNOVATIVE, MULTI-DISCIPLINE CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT.

  • We are fortunate to have a well-rounded team of experts on staff. More importantly, though, our proximity to the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) and our ties to various LE agencies and military units allow for input from experienced instructors and operators from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines.

THOROUGH PEER AND SME REVIEW PROCESS.

  • We integrate the input we receive from senior law enforcement and military professionals and various subject matter experts into our lesson plans as part of a disciplined, clearly-defined process.

DETAILED LESSON PLANS FOR CONSISTENT, LEGALLY-DEFENSIBLE CONTENT.

  • We choose instructors based on a number of factors, including experience, knowledge, humility, and public speaking ability. The backbone of our training, however, are the lesson plans that have been developed for each of courses. Detailed lesson plans ensure that courses are consistent and that course material has been properly developed and reviewed.

CORPORATE-LEVEL PRESENTATION AND LOGISTICS.

  • Having solid lesson plans and in-depth knowledge is important. Delivering that information clearly and efficiently is just as critical. We focus on presentation and logistics to help you make the most of limited training time and budgets.
