BASIC MOUNTED POLICE TRAINING (Course # 2012-2)
We are sorry that you missed our April 2012 Basic Mounted
Police Training and Posse Course. Please contact us to schedule our next
class for you, your mounted patrol unit or posse organization.
Course Description
This course integrates training for both sworn law enforcement personnel and
non-sworn members of a law enforcement agency's civilian equestrian support
organization, (commonly referred to as a Mounted Reserve or Posse). The
curriculum consists of classroom instruction, as well as practical training both
on and off horseback. Upon successful completion of the course the student
will have been provided with the basic skills and knowledge needed to
competently perform his or her responsibilities as a mounted law enforcement
officer or civilian support member.
Sworn participants will be required to
attend the entire 40-hour course. The final day of this course consists of
training in subject areas typically performed only by sworn personnel;
therefore, non-sworn
participants are only required to attend the first 30 hours. Sworn and
Non-Sworn individuals who have already received basic mounted police training
certificates may select up to 20 hours of Refresher Training in the subject
areas they desire.
All instruction is supervised by graduates of the University of Louisville -
Southern Police Institute's Law Enforcement Instructor Course.
Participation in this school is by advance registration only.
Early registration is suggested to reserve your place in this
class.
Who Should Attend
This course is designed for persons 18 years
of age or older who are in
need of basic mounted police or posse training:
Typically newly assigned officers to mounted
patrol duties; new members to an agency's
civilian equestrian support organization,
(commonly referred to as Mounted Reserve or
Posse); individuals who would like to prepare
themselves and their horses for becoming a
member of their local Mounted Reserve or Posse;
and those who are seeking a future career in
mounted law enforcement.
The unique design of this course easily
accommodates also those who have previously
received basic mounted police training and
desire 20 hours of Refresher Training.
Being an accomplished rider is not necessary.
Participants should, however, possess at least
basic riding skills to attend this class: The
ability to ride a horse at a walk from point to
point without veering off course; and to stop,
back and turn the horse. This course will
not only improve your skills for these basic
maneuvers, but will take your riding to the next
level with intermediate maneuvers, including,
but not limited to, trotting and cantering.
The course is considered by some to be
somewhat physically challenging.
Participant should be in reasonably good health
and without any physical or medical condition
that could be worsened by the activities of the
class, or that might otherwise create a risk to
the participant or others.
