POLICY
All Sheriff’s Office members who are authorized to carry a firearm are required to participate in
regularly scheduled firearms training and qualifications. Members will plan to participate so that
vacation and C.T.O. will not preclude their attendance within the scheduled period.
The mandatory firearms training schedule will be published by the Rangemaster in advance of
the scheduled training so that all armed members of the Sheriff’s Office will have due notice
prior to the beginning of the training period. Armed members who fail to participate in
scheduled firearms training are subject to discipline and shall explain in writing to their Chief
Deputy their reason for not participating.
