This program may only be attended by students who have previously completed a course of instruction similar to the State of Illinois Mandatory Firearms Training program as provided by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board. The sole authority for allowing a student to participate in this program and to waive any participant from attending the entire Mandatory Firearms Training program applicable to Illinois Peace Officers is vested in the Board. The program consists of classroom refresher training to prepare students to take the written examination required by P.A. 90-646, actual administration of the examination, and having each student attempt to qualify on the State of Illinois-approved Mandatory Firearms Training Qualification Course. According to P.A. 90-646, waivers will be contingent upon an officer's successful completion of the written test and qualifying course of fire from the 40 Hr. Mandatory Firearms Training Program. The written examination consists of 50 multiple choice questions. Officers seeking a waiver must achieve a passing score of 70% and will have only one opportunity to pass the written test. The Handgun Qualification Course of Fire consists of 10 rounds fired from the 5-yard line, 14 rounds fired from the 7-yard line, 14 rounds fired from the 10-yard line, and 12 rounds fired from the 15-yard line. The officer will receive only be allowed three (3) opportunities to qualify for record. Range time will be given to familiarize officers with the official course of fire. Students will receive N.E.M.R.T. and State of Illinois certificates reflecting successful completion of the requirements of P.A. 90-646. ***Departments are to submit a Form E, as well as a Waiver Application for the individual officer to the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board.*** In order to have their registration confirmed, departments will then need to submit the following to NEMRT, prior to the start of the course: - Letter from ILETSB authorizing individual to participate in course of fire - NEMRT’s Consent to Participate Form - NEMRT’s Indemnification Agreement Registrants will be placed on a waiting list until the above items are received. Questions in regards to registration and confirmation should be directed to the NEMRT Registrar at 630-896-8860 Note: Students need to bring their duty weapon, holster, 3 magazines, 150 rounds of ammunition, eye and ear protection, and a pen to class.
