This course covers the fundamentals of ‘room clearing’ from a theoretical and a practical standpoint. It includes some classroom presentation, but most of the time is spent in the shoot house doing force-on-target and force-on-force drills and exercises. We will discuss deliberate and dynamic clearing methods theoretically, but we will focus on a specific, hybrid method for practical application.

OPEN ENROLLMENT
We typically offer open enrollment NV Operator courses 2 to 3 times per year at our facility in Brunswick, GA. You can register on our open enrollment schedule.
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.
