5 Important Training Considerations

5 Important Training Considerations

 

Even though I am an “instructor”, I do my best to train as often as possible, both to challenge and increase my current capabilities and to develop new skills. I do not see myself as an “instructor” but rather a fellow trainer as learning always occurs both ways and those who have had the experience of discussing the topic with me have heard me say “I am looking forward to training with you” or have heard me correct someone who refers to me as their instructor by saying “we have trained together.” A phrase that has stuck with me from early on in my professional career has been “Know enough to know that you don’t know – always a student, always learning.” – JAL

reagan assassination attempt

We all remember the quick and effective US Secret Service agent’s response to the assassination attempt made by John Hinckley Jr. on March 30, 1981.

However, we use this event as a learning point as the reactive measures, while they saved his life, were not enough to save the President from harm. Many protocols were changed after this event and as such we try not to have an event dictate our policy, but our forethought and threat analysis.
