Handgun Instructor Level 2
The 40 hour Level II Instructor Course is a vital supplement to the 80 hour Level I Course.
While the Level I course focuses on core competencies necessary to instruct others in safe gun handling, handgun manipulation and marksmanship, the Level II course focuses on diagnosing shooter deficiencies. It provides the current firearms instructor with the much needed tools to identify shooter deficiencies, whether it be trigger control, sighting issues or physical issues surrounding the proper use of the weapon, and then diagnose deficiencies with actual shooters.
- Develop the skills necessary to identify shooter deficiencies
- Develop firearms training to correct those deficiencies
- Develop motor learning components to correct shooter deficiencies
- Begin development of maintaining fundamental skills while conducting scenario based training
