Course Summary:

This Explosive Breaching Course is geared toward personnel wishing to gain the knowledge and expertise to design an Explosive Breaching Program for their agency, or expand on an existing Explosive Breaching Program already in place. There are no prerequisites for this course and we will take students who have no prior explosive background. The reason we refer to this course as Basic / Intermediate, is that although many of the students attending have no prior explosive handling background, we are pushing students past the basics and moving into more intermediate level tactical and explosive breaching concepts. At Forced Entry Tactical Training, we believe the tactics behind the charges is what makes a great operational Explosive Breaching Program.

Course Summary:

This course is simply a customized version of our existing curriculums. Although Forced Entry Tactical Training has always specialized in Explosive Entry training geared toward Law Enforcement SWAT and EOD personnel, we have seen an increasing interest from our Military Units. With this course, Forced Entry will speak directly with Unit leadership to determine what your exact needs are. From here we will adjust both classroom and range activities to make sure that the material being taught will be a benefit to your specific operational needs. These courses will not be open to Law Enforcement personnel and will only be offered and sold as Closed Courses.
