Cass County Sheriff's Office Regional Training Academy

Out of the classroom and out to the parking lot as the recruits worked on accident investigations.

After a morning ruck, the recruits passed another milestone this afternoon as they experienced OC.

The recruits have been out of our classroom this week and working on ALERRT training at a local school. While ALERRT training isn't required by the state of Missouri for recruits, we feel it is very important to teach ALERRT while also working on building searches.

It may be rainy. It may be cold. But any day on the firing range is better than a day in the classroom.

After a long week in the classroom working on First Responder, the recruits took a field trip to Harrisonville Fire Department where they learned a few basics in case they are assisting EMS at a scene. In addition to 40 hours of First Responder, the recruits have also completed 8 hours of American Heart Association Basic Life Survival and 4 hours of Stop the Bleed.

The recruits spent the afternoon in the pool working on Water Confidence and Survival.

It was a little rainy and a little chilly, but that doesn't stop learning in the academy.

Last Friday the recruits passed a milestone as they successfully completed Survival Mentality (aka Hell Day). Congratulations Class #2601!

Yesterday's PT was taken to a new level for the recruits as they participated in an Officer Down scenario. This not only worked on physical fitness, but also focused on teamwork.
