Class 85 is on the firing range this week for Block 3 of Fi****ms. The cadets have completed many hours of practice and will now attempt to qualify during day and night conditions.

Last week was a busy one for the Class 84 cadets. The cadets completed “Crowd Management”, “Courtroom Security” and “Rapid Deployment”.
The state comprehensive exam is only eight days away!

Flashback Friday:
Couldn’t resist posting this gem from way back in 1986!

Special thanks to Catawba Valley Community College Library for guiding us to a treasure trove of historical clippings.

Glad to have been a part of this great training exercise along with CVCC Fire & Rescue

Karen Less served as the School Director for this 608 hour course. The Assistant Director was Captain Skip Isenhour of the Newton Police Department.

“First Responder” is the current topic for Class 85.
The cadets are learning the skills necessary to provide care until EMS arrives. Today, the cadets completed CPR training with Instructor Perkins and Instructor Mecimore.

Class 84 completed “Testifying in Court” Friday with practical exercises at the Justice Center. Each cadet was required to testify in a mock trial.

The Hudson Police Department utilized the FAAC Driving Simulator Decision Making Course this morning with Assistant Director Bates. The officers also trained in the use of tire deflation devices.
The driving simulator contains 260 pre-programmed scenarios but also allows for customized scenarios. The training focuses on decision making, safety and procedures. The cab has emergency lights, siren, radio and MDT for the student to utilize. The scenario can be played back for review and discussion.
The simulator is located at the Dale Earnhardt Regional Innovation Center. Contact TJ Bates if your agency is interested in training with the driving simulator. [email protected]
