Firearms Training System (F.A.T.S.)
The Firearms Training System (F.A.T.S.) is an excellent training tool designed to develop and sharpen a police officer's discretionary skills as well as reinforce conflict resolution abilities.
As our society has become more violent - and the scrutiny on police officers more pervasive - the need for judgemental firearms training has become more crucial. F.A.T.S. utilizes digital interactive training technology, allowing officers to develop decision-making skills by responding to real-life scenarios where force may be necessary.
To see when F.A.T.S. will be in your area, contact the League's Loss Control Division at 334-262-2566. Depending on availability, the FATS Coordinator will deliver the system and provide instruction on how to use the equipment. Loss Control representatives are not certified firearms instructors (CFI). They will not, in any manner, attempt to teach the force continuum. That responsibility will lie with the CFI; and the League high;y recommends that such training originate in a classroom and progress towards the use of F.A.T.S.
