NTC IN-DEPTH:
NTC appears to be smaller in scope than some of the other programs funded by UASI. It was created in 2003. It is a "California POST certified tactical provider" for "law enforcement" including SWAT teams. They offer courses that vary in length, from 8-40 hours, on an ongoing basis. There were three trainings held in November and one scheduled for December in Orange, CA. For example, they offer a "Patrol Rifle Instructor's Course." Agencies nationwide contract and host NTC to conduct the trainings for their staff. They have one trainer, R. K. Miller, who is the President & Senior Instructor of NTC. They also sell "ChamberSafe," a cheap firearm lock. The images on their website mainly feature a lot of guns.
