Training
Apple Valley Police
Explorer Post #571
Explorer Seal

 

The Explorer Post exposes members to the law enforcement field primarily through training. The Post meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of the month from 7-9 PM throughout the year. The training consists of lecture and hands-on practical scenarios in related law enforcement topics such as:
· Traffic Stops
· Traffic Accident Investigation
· Bomb Threat Response
· Domestic Crisis
· Arrest and Search
· Crime Scene Investigation
· White Collar Crime
· Crime Prevention
· First Aid
· Street Decisions
· Hostage Negotiation
· Burglary Response
· Radio Use
· Handcuffing
Apple Valley's Post has also participated in joint training with other agencies. We have received training from a variety of federal, state and local agencies such as the FBI, ATF, U.S. Marshal's Service, Secret Service, MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, MN State Patrol, and county and local agencies in Dakota, Washington and Ramsey Counties.

The training is based on preparing the members to compete against other explorer groups throughout Minnesota at the annual MN Law Enforcement Explorer Conference. At the conference, the explorers have an opportunity to utilize the training they have received in scenario-based competitions and receive awards and scholarship money for placing in the top five teams for each event. Take a look at our awards page for previous awards won. There also is a National Explorer Conference available semiannually.
