Master Instructor Development Program

You can view the calendar on the home page for a list of training locations and dates.

The International Association of Law Enforcement Firearms Instructor (IALEFI) “Master Instructor Development Program” is not designed as a “shooting school”, but rather an experience to make you a better communicator in teaching critical gunfight-winning skills. It is specifically designed for individuals already certified as firearms instructors to continue their education and attend quality training at minimum cost.  Focus will be on the enhancement of teaching skills on the three primary law enforcement firearm types: – Handgun – Shotgun – Rifle.

Different proven methodologies will be used to enhance the teaching skills of the police firearms instructor. Hands-on skills will progress from the basics to the more complex and all participants regardless of skill level will find themselves challenged. Practicalexercise will put an emphasis on both defense-minded efficiency and operational skills.

Throughout the three-day program, participants will be exposed to various concepts and skills designed to improve the professional value of instructors and their students. The information presented will prove especially useful in creating a positive training experience that will ultimately result in greater officer safety.  Live fire exercises will be both demanding and challenging and attendees should be in good physical condition. Our goal is to provide a quality service so that we may better prepare our law enforcement officers who go in harm’s way.
