We be talking about mastering operational skills training, honing firearms skills and navigating urgent driver training. These subjects are designed to prepare our recruits for the challenges they'll face on the job, and we know they’re also the subjects our recruits look forward to the most.
We hear about the skills recruits learn so they can protect themselves and others in potentially dangerous situations. We’ll also hear the finer details of handling firearms responsibly and effectively in the line of duty, and how they learn to drive safely in high pressure situations.
