ABOUT THE 10 HOUR COURSE

In accordance with Texas Administrative Code Title 37 and Texas Occupations Code Chapter 1702, starting January 2024, the Defensive Tactics and Firearms portion of the Level 3 training must be conducted in person, and must be between 10 and 15 hours in length.

This course is the completion of your Initial or Bi-Annual Recertification PSB Level 3 training required by DPS.   Upon completion of your online course, you will receive a certificate of course completion for the online training (form number PSP-30 or 31). This certificate must be completed by an approved Training School and Approved Instructor.

Our proven course includes the mandated hours of in person self-defense tactics and firearms training. This is a 2 day course.

***YOU MUST ATTEND BOTH TRAINING DAYS TO COMPLETE YOUR QUALIFICATION***

Day 1 will include 7-8 hours of classroom training located in New Braunfels TX. This will include Defensive tactics, Use of Handcuffs, Baton use, use of OC Spray and Basic Firearms fundamentals.

Day 2 we will meet at the shooting range for approximately 3 hours where you will receive training in; Firearms Safety, the proper use of your holster, basic Firearms fundamentals, and the firearm qualification course. While at the range you will also complete your OC (Pepper Spray) qualification. We use an inert training OC spray, you do not get sprayed with live OC.

If wanted, we will include the Shotgun qualification at no additional cost, just bring 9 rounds of 12ga #00buckshot.

We are now offering a combination course option for level 3

If you need both the 30-hour online course and the 10 hour in person training, we are now offering a Combination Course that includes both for one price. If purchased separately, both courses would cost almost $300. We are now offering our combination course for the lowest price possible at $249.

Click below to reserve a seat for the 10 hour level 3 in person Tactics and Firearms Training. Please note; This option does not include the 30 hour online course.

Please note: THIS IS NOT a basic shooting course. For Security officers who are new to Firearms, we recommend attending our Pistol 1 course prior to the firearms certification. Contact us to discuss some options.

You MUST Reserve a space for this course. Walk-ons will not be allowed without prior authorization.

BIANNUAL REQUALIFICATION

For current Level 3 Security officers who require the biannual requalification. The requalification process is actually a two-part process. There is an online class that must be completed before you can proceed with the firearms qualification. There has been some confusion recently about what needs to be completed, the form that is provided to DPS / TOPS is called the “Firearms Requalification” PSP31. This form requires the classroom portion to be completed as well as the firearms qualification. Once the required training is complete, we will meet on the range where we will conduct a refresher on Personal tactics, Expandable Baton use, OC spray refresher, and the Firearms Qualification. We place a strong focus on your firearms skills prior to the qualification. Our firearms training course exceeds what is required by DPS. We conduct a “tune up” on your fundamentals, focus on proper holster use and the qualification. We include the Shotgun qualification at no additional cost.

If you are looking for a more extensive firearms training tailored towards security officers, contact us about our Armed Guardian or Defensive Pistol course.

Combination Option for Level 3 Requalification

We now offer a combination option for the Bi-Annual requalification. When you purchase the online re-qualification class and the range qualification together, you save $25 if they were purchased separately.
