For over thirty years, two programs have set the standards in law enforcement training programs. The Monadnock International Instructor Seminar and the Defense Technology Less Lethal Instructor Program
have joined together under the time honored Safariland name as the Safariland Training Group Conference. This year we introduce a new series of daily lecture based classes, adding another dimension to our already highly respected training programs. Small group instruction and daily interaction.

This years Annual Training Conference is over and it is hard to believe close to a years work has come to an end. We want to thank the LPD SWAT and LPSO SRT for all of their dedication to making this conference a complete success. Everyone, at the time of this posting, will hopefully be home reflecting on what they have been exposed to this week and use that to make them a better and safer SWAT officer. Some are still here for their last day of training.
We want to thank all of our vendors who were great again this year in their support of our conference.
