Sniper Overwatch for SWAT Operations is an advanced 24 hour three-day course designed to enhance sniper confidence supporting SWAT Operations through training conducted in a realistic urban environment. After vetting and review of sniper skills on the range and shoothouse, training progresses to full mission profile exercises conducted in an actual urban setting. Live-fire sniper support will be integrated with entry team activity. Skills enhanced in this course include the conduct of observation, sniper-initiated assault, and spontaneous precision response for typical SWAT missions which include but are not limited to;

High risk warrant service

Barricaded suspect

Hostage Rescue

Active Shooter

This is an advanced course. The sniper is held to the standard of 100% shot accountability. Failure to demonstrate or maintain standards will result in the sniper being allowed to continue training, but will not be allowed to participate in live-fire scenarios.
