There are three reasons for such advice: 1) to ensure that candidates do not learn non-academy curriculum 2) to avoid poor instruction and the development of bad marksmanship habits- foremost of which is to shoot with “anticipation” 3) to keep candidates healthy before the entering the academy- i.e. not being the victim of a firearms accident.

Of these, reason #2 is perhaps the most critical from a training perspective. At TAC-1 we don’t allow students to simply blast out rounds, which leads to the anticipation of recoil and poor marksmanship. As academy firearms instructors, we know and understand fundamental firearms training for law enforcement. TAC-1 will address all concerns that law enforcement hiring departments have and build a solid foundation so that any candidate can walk through the academy gates feeling confident and secure in starting the firearms training module.

TAC-1 Pre-Academy can be taken prior to or during your application process with any of the agencies. When given a hiring date and when class schedule permits, immediately seek our training before entering the academy as most academies will not allow their recruits to shoot off property during their training.
