Winter 2011-12 In-Service Course Catalog
This 2 day program, formerly entitled "Problem Solving & Counseling Canine Teams:
Certification," has been designed to test and certify any law enforcement canine team in
accordance with the testing procedure used in the NEMRT/TOPS 8 Week Basic Canine
Officer course. Teams that have received training from programs other than the
NEMRT/TOPS "8 Week Basic Canine Officer" course are also welcome to participate.
The focus of this course will be to verify the effectiveness of working canine handlers and
their dogs and to support them in their ongoing efforts to keep the teams at the highest level
of performance through ongoing practical verification. It also provides a problem-solving
period during which difficulties canine teams may encounter will be identified and resolved.
Canine teams will be expected to pass a series of practical exercises currently used in the 8
week course, including:
- Obedience proficiency examination
- Obstacles proficiency examination
- Tracking proficiency examination
- Building search proficiency examination
- Narcotics proficiency examination
- Handler protection/aggression control proficiency examination
- Article search proficiency examination
Canine teams successfully completing this series of exercises will receive certification valid
for 1 year from the date of testing. Due to the condensed nature of the course, no class time
may be missed. This program has been certified by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training
and Standards Board. The actual length of the course may be extended to adapt to the
varying needs of the handlers and canines enrolled in each recertification class.
This course has been certified by the ILETSB.
** Cancellations for this program must be received by NEMRT 35 days prior to the start of
the class in order to avoid being billed.
This course will be taught by: Instructors with Tops Kennels.
This three day program, formerly entitled "Problem Solving/Tracking & Article Recovery
for Canine Teams," is designed to increase a canine's ability to track on all surfaces and in
varied environments. Incorporated into this tracking will be the identification and recovery
of articles related to individual tracks. Also incorporated will be scent discrimination from
light to extremely heavy.
NOTE: Participants must have experience beyond beginning or refresher tracking - this is
not a basic program.
This course is open to currently sworn law enforcement canine teams who have completed a
basic canine course and who are certified in tracking.
