The Night Vision Operator Course (NVOC) is a tactical training course offered by Triadi’s training partner, a US Department of Defense contractor and security company that provides world-class training, specialized equipment, and protective and advisory services to US and allied government organizations.

The Night Vision Operator Course (NVOC) was originally created after the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks and focused on Military Operations on Urban Terrain (MOUT) for deployed troops in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Since then, the training course has grown within the US Law Enforcement Community.

NVOC imageThe Night Vision Operator Course (NVOC) gives Law Enforcement Officers the foundational knowledge needed to work safely and effectively using night vision goggles, lasers and white light during no light/low light operations.

Military and Law Enforcement operations are regularly conducted in dark conditions and often not by choice. Statistically, most crimes, and the vast majority of Law Enforcement involved shootings occur in low light conditions. Only a small percentage of Law Enforcement tactical training however effectively covers night operations.

Law Enforcement Departments that have procured night vision gear are often under-utilizing these “potentially” powerful tools. At the same time, they may even be increasing the risk of their officers by not educating them enough to fully understand the capabilities and limitations in using night vision.

The 3-Day Night Vision Operator Course (NVOC) includes classroom presentation, live fire drills, and non-lethal training ammunition (NLTA) drills, exercises and scenario-based training. In general, this is a formalized course of instruction that is designed to be a foundation for armed professionals that use night vision. It’s not specific to any kind of mission and it’s designed to develop individual skills that apply across the board. It will bring up to speed LEOs who have had no training in low light/no light tactical operations and at the same time compliment experienced operators who already have training “under the goggle”. Ideally, the formalized Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTP) learned in this course should be brought back and taught to your department- i.e. force multiplier.

“Advanced techniques are the basics mastered.”- Spiro Demetriadi, Triadi, Inc. founder
