JACKSONVILLE, Florida – Safariland™ Training Group, is pleased to announce its 2010 National Conference, November 1 - 4, 2010, near New Orleans. Formerly known as the Less Lethal conference and the Monadnock training conference, the program has been expanded to include a new line of lecture-based classes geared toward supervisors and investigators, as well as more specialized courses based on the demand for new training in the law enforcement industry.
Safariland will combine its traditional and most popular courses with a new line of options including:

New lecture-based classes were created by request from officers across the country.

Small group instruction and daily interaction are the hallmarks of each class. Safariland Training Group Instructors guide attendees through the programs with personalized attention and support. The courses have been developed with the experience of the Training Group’s Instructors and the expertise behind Safariland’s product brands, such as Monadnock®,
Defense Technology®, Protech® and Forensics Source®.
“We’ve geared the conference towards the ever–changing needs of the police community,” said Sandy Wall, Safariland’s Director of Training. “Our focus is to offer courses that are unique and challenging with personalized attention and hands-on instruction.”
