Students must pass two Written Examinations (2 hrs) with a minimum of 70% and achieve a shooting proficiency of 80% during the firearms portion to successfully complete this course. Optional review sessions are scheduled prior to each written exam. Students passing Reserve Officer Training will earn 5 college credits; students earning a letter grade of “C” or better and shooting a minimum score of 80% will also receive a “Certificate of Completion” from DCC.
The Reserve Officer Training curriculum was developed from the performance objectives of the Montana Law Enforcement Academy’s (MLEA) Police Basic Training Course. Agencies in DCC’s 17-county service area were asked to review relevant performance objectives from the Basic course, and identify the types of training a reserve officer should receive. Those results were then compiled into a comprehensive training curriculum for reserve officers that is intended to meet and/or exceed the 88 hours of training required by Montana law. Review of the curriculum is continual and topics and material are updated every year as necessary. Rest assured that your reserve officers will receive quality training at a reasonable cost. In addition, officers receive college credit, which can be applied towards a college degree.
