CIVILIAN TRAINING PROGRAMS

National Academy of Public Safety (NAPS) is an organization dedicated to providing quality training to law enforcement, security professionals, armored transportation officers, correctional officers, and the general public. In an effort to extend the availability of quality training we developed our courses in convenient and affordable program formats.

National Academy of Public Safety civilian programs were developed by our law enforcement and civilian course program director Bill Jeans. Many of you know of Mr. Jeans prior 17 year relationship as the Operations Manager of "GUNSITE"
As a corporate director for NAPS we felt that his experience and his commitment to training will benefit the general public as well as law enforcement/security venues.

All of NAPS trainers carry equal credentials and dedication to training. NAPS trainers have completed instructor development programs presented by the NRA Law Enforcement Training Division, GLOCK Industries, Gunsite, Thunder Ranch, Simunitions, Monadnock and other professional training institutions to numerous to mention. These training institutions have been the leaders in instructor development. Mr. Jeans and our Security Firearms Coordinator Ken Zachary have been guest trainers and presenters at many of these development schools.

NAPS is registered as a Private Post Secondary school and carries certifications from the Bureau of Consumer Affairs Security and Investigative Services licensing unit. NAPS is a member or the National Rifle Association and American Society
for Law Enforcement Trainers.

At NAPS we create learning a partnership where the students input is an important part of the training process. "NO TRAIN, NO GAIN"
