Tried, True, and Tested

Professional Training for Effective Deployment and Operational Success

The StunTronics Training Division provides standardized training designed to ensure personnel understand not only the operation of StunTronics equipment, but also proper application, maintenance requirements, policy considerations, and operational effectiveness.

For more than three decades, StunTronics has supported law enforcement and correctional agencies with products designed to provide effective control options while reducing unnecessary physical confrontation. Our training programs are built around proper equipment operation, consistent procedures, and proven operational practices.

Training Philosophy

Successful implementation of any equipment system requires more than simply understanding how the equipment functions. StunTronics training focuses on developing confidence, consistency, and competency through comprehensive instruction.

Training includes:
• Equipment operation and capabilities
• Proper application procedures
• Maintenance requirements
• Safety considerations
• Operational effectiveness
• Agency policy considerations
• Standardized procedures for consistent use

The Band-It System and ICE Shield are separate products, and each has its own certification pathway.

User Training

User Training provides personnel with the knowledge required to properly operate and apply the applicable StunTronics product.

User Training is typically provided by certified StunTronics Instructors who have successfully completed StunTronics Instructor Training and are authorized to provide User-level certification for the applicable product. StunTronics also provides User Training directly when requested or when agency requirements make direct training by StunTronics appropriate.

User Training generally requires 4–8 hours depending on the product, instructor experience, and class size.

Upon successful completion, personnel receive User certification. User certification does not expire.

Instructor Training

The StunTronics Instructor Program is designed to develop qualified trainers capable of providing User-level instruction to law enforcement personnel for the StunTronics product(s) for which they are certified.

Certified instructors may provide training within their own agency, as well as to qualified law enforcement personnel from other agencies when permitted by their agency policies and requirements.

Instructor Training prepares personnel to effectively teach StunTronics equipment operation and includes:
• Technology and waveform fundamentals
• Equipment operation and maintenance requirements
• Product effectiveness and operational considerations
• Psychological and control considerations
• Application criteria and placement guidelines
• Take-down and follow-up procedures
• Agency policy considerations
• Standardized methods for conducting User-level training

Successful completion authorizes instructors to train and certify Users for the applicable StunTronics product.

Instructor certification authority is limited to User-level training and does not authorize instructors to certify additional instructors.

Training Delivery

StunTronics training is primarily conducted through live, instructor-led Zoom training.

When an agency has a larger number of personnel requiring instructor certification, regional in-person training options may be discussed.

Training may be provided through certified StunTronics Instructors or directly by StunTronics when appropriate.

Instructor Certification and Recertification

Instructor certification requires recertification every two years through an online recertification process.

User certification does not expire.

An instructor whose certification has expired remains certified as a User but may not conduct User-level certification training until the instructor certification has been renewed, if eligible, through the StunTronics recertification process.

Training Materials

Each student is required to have the appropriate StunTronics training manual for the product being covered.

A Commitment to Consistent, Professional Training

The StunTronics Training Division is committed to providing agencies with the knowledge, skills, and resources necessary to successfully implement and maintain StunTronics equipment within their operations.
