In-person courses at Crain Defense Solutions are designed for individuals who want practical, scenario-driven training grounded in safety, responsibility, and lawful decision-making.
These courses move beyond static drills and focus on building real capability through progressive instruction, repetition, and increasing levels of complexity. Training emphasizes accuracy first, then integrates movement, decision-making, and performance under stress.
Courses are intentionally structured to challenge students while maintaining a controlled, professional training environment.
