Engaging, realistic, dynamic training programs have the largest downstream return on investment of any expenditure in our industry. If our members are trained well, they will perform at a high level in the most adverse and challenging conditions. To have the best training, we have to equip our instructors and training officers with the best foundational skills and support available and reinforce high expectations in the classroom and on the drill ground. This class will provide a set of key foundational elements to establish an effective training program, cultivate instructors, and ensure consistency across cognitive and psychomotor instruction.
