This course in the Officer Virtual Academy discusses the concerns and pros and cons of secondary weapons, and it reviews considerations for off-duty weapons.
One of the biggest challenges any law enforcement professional faces is self-improvement while working rotating shifts. Between sleeping during different parts of the day, spending time with family, and handling personal duties/chores, making time for classes on any type of schedule is difficult at best. In answer to this challenge, Officer Media Group has launched the Officer Virtual Academy (OVA).
Backup & Secondary Weapons Selection is the latest course offered in the academy. In this course, participants learn about the concerns and pros and cons of secondary weapons. It also reviews considerations for off-duty weapons.
The course includes a PowerPoint slide show that corresponds to the four training videos. The total viewing time for the videos is approximately 15 minutes broken down into four segments. For viewer’s reference, there is also a downloadable PDF version of the PowerPoint presentation, perfect for use in taking notes. A course syllabus and extra reading resources are also included in the training materials.
