LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING
The need for continued training for officers on the decision of when to utilize deadly force is now an accepted fact among the courts. Royal Range USA Training academy stands ready to provide instruction that will allow officers to understand the dynamics of threat assessment, the fluidity of incidents, make the proper decision on the level of force necessary, insuring officer safety and decreasing department liability. Providing officers this crucial training on perishable skills to insure officer safety is more important now than ever.
Unfortunately, many police agencies, due to a lack of resources, still have not developed training in this area.
