2025 ILEETA (International Law Enforcement Educators and Trainers Association) Conference, St Louis, MO
Our 2025 ILEETA Conference is in-session this week at the wonderful Union Station Hotel and Conference Center.
Vicki presented her Class twice. I just mingled this time, as we had to depart today.
As always, there is an extensive vendor area.
I got a chance to immerse myself in the latest video technology from TI of Golden, CO. Video scenarios (of which there are now thousands, more all the time) are amazingly realistic, varied, and variable, with multiple outcomes. Officers can employ deadly force (via guns), Tasers, OC, batons, verbalizations. The System accommodates it all, plus movement, cover, interaction. Web Page is: titraining.com
The NACFI (National Association of Combat Firearms Instructors) is a new organization. They had a booth there and invited me to join. I graciously accepted! Web Page is: nacfi.org
At the Conference there were/are over 120 separate classes- lecture, hands-on, medical, and Range.
SIG offered a one-day 320 Armorer’s Certification. SureLock (arrestee control) ran a Instructor Certification Program, and there were several others.
All LEOs should be members of ILEETA! Ray Merlin is our wonderful Executive Director, and he and his staff surely know how to organize and run our Annual Conference.
Our Conference is an opportunity to get together and learn from many different esteemed instructors, and from each other.
Don’t pass-up the opportunity to join us there!
