Tactical Warrant Services and Approaches Course

Program Announcement

The Monroe County Public Safety Training Facility (PSTF), in partnership with the Rochester Police Department, will be holding a Tactical Warrant Service and Approaches Course at 1190 Scottsville Road, Rochester, New York. This course was developed for officers tasked with approaching high-risk situations such as serving warrants and conducting building searches to provide them with the necessary skills to develop and command the edge in both shooting and non-shooting situations. This course is facilitated with intensive, hands- on training that will enhance an officer’s ability to execute warrants and building searches safely and effectively. Individuals should attend this course with the capability and motivation to participate in a stressful environment, both physically and mentally.

Students who successfully complete this course will receive two (2) college credits from Monroe Community College.
