Coaching for Skills Instructors (3-Day)

Designed specifically for range masters, defensive tactics instructors, and other skills instructors, this 3-day course equips participants with ecological coaching techniques tailored to high-stakes psychomotor and tactical skills. Instructors learn to create representative practice environments that mirror the perceptual, cognitive, and physical demands officers face in dynamic encounters, moving beyond traditional “block practice” to variable, context-rich training. Emphasis is placed on constraint manipulation, attunement to information sources in the environment, and individualized feedback that accelerates skill acquisition while enhancing retention under stress. Participants leave ready to redesign their firearms, tactics, and scenario programs so officers develop adaptable expertise that transfers directly to the field. This course bridges the gap between traditional instruction and modern ecological principles for law enforcement skills training.
