UNC-Pembroke Police & Public Safety recently partnered with instructors from Robeson Community College’s BLET program to conduct a Shoot/No Shoot simulation with members of the Criminal Justice Club.

This hands-on scenario based training challenged participants to think critically, make split-second decisions, and better understand the complexities law enforcement officers face in the field. It was a great opportunity to bridge classroom knowledge with real-world application.

We appreciate the collaboration and engagement from everyone involved in making this exercise a success!
