The purpose: The Operative Readiness Course, or in its short name - ORC - is a unique 5 - day program which is designed to compress different training-related topics into one program and within 5 days of intensive training. The objective is to either refresh or develop solid foundations of basic skillsets and procedures on the individual level.
The idea of ORC originates in requests we got from clients over the years, to establish a program that may not teach only new skills - but also provide a platform to retrain, refresh, and perhaps even fine-tune - already existing skills.
The aim of the the ORC program is to train intensively, around the clock, and to shoot alot. As that simple.
What´s on the menu?
In short: Basic to advanced tactical handling of a rifle or handgun, Small Unit Tactics, CQB, and additional topics, all compressed into a 5 day program. Below is the admin as well as curriculum information about this class.
This course will also include a lot of drills, shooting and running, so basic fitness is well reocmmended.
