Tactical Emergency Casualty Care for Law Enforcement Officers and First Responders (TECC-LEO)

Description

Essential Tactical Medical Skills for Frontline Responders 

The TECC-LEO course is an 8-hour, classroom-based training program developed specifically for law enforcement officers and security teams who may respond to active threat environments but do not possess medical training. It is a modified version of the 16-hour TECC provider course, designed to be accessible and practical for non-EMS responders. 

This course equips participants with the lifesaving skills needed to treat trauma victims and wounded colleagues in hostile, high-threat settings—before EMS arrives.
