Whether you’re a rural agency or a metro city with parks and vacant lots every agency has terrain that can be considered “open”.  These environments require different tactics and techniques when reacting to an ambush or lethal engagement.  Training is centered around training students how to react to a variety of engagements and tactically negotiate the obstacles encountered in open environments.  This is not a military tactics class, but instead designed for law enforcement which have a different set of parameters to consider when reacting.
