The course delves into the historical origins of the shield, tracing its evolution from military contexts to its current use in law enforcement. This course will include both lecture and practical instruction on the following:

• Traditional Shield Use: Participants will explore traditional shield techniques and gain insights into best practices for effective deployment.

• Flat Range Training: The curriculum emphasizes hands-on practice, covering shield manipulation, marksmanship, movement, positional work, malfunctions, and reloads.
