I have been to a SWAT school or two, and I have trained some SWAT guys. My current agency is small, with ZERO SWAT capability. But the training requirement is real, and for patrol cops that aren't gun-n-run types, with limited time and training resources ALERRT checks a box. If it were my decision I would send everyone to the traveling instructor school for the information and the reps. Even if they failed (an actual possibility in my experience, sorry Louis!) they would be better served than by most patrol scenario training, and with less investment than sending everyone to SWAT school and dealing with their failures there. It is not SWAT. It is eye opening, with a bunch of PHDs and BTDTs trying to put on a portable, lowest common denominator type in extremis training. I'll take it, because right now it is all available.
