2021 VIRTUAL CONFERENCE

The 2020 IALEFI Online Conference is a completely virtual event. This means that all content will be available online through the event app for both the LIVE EVENT and following the event for all sessions, transcriptions, and downloadable materials.

The short answer is, yes.

By hosting a "training conference" online, attendees gain access to instructors and experts from around the world. 

In addition, this platform allows instructors, officers, and agencies the opportunity to learn from each other, revolutionizing the way we conduct Law Enforcement Firearms Training at local, state, and federal levels. 

The annual general meeting (AGM) is a mandatory yearly gathering of a IALEFI's Directors and Members. At an AGM, the board will present an annual report containing information for members about IALEFI's performance and strategy.

Members will vote on current issues such as new appointments to IALEFI's board of directors.

The short answer is... maybe. 

We are planning an October 2021 ATC (Annual Training Conference) to take place in Florida. 

Depending on COVID-19 and lockdown restrictions this is a TENTATIVE date and location for an in-person training event and conference. We will keep all members updated as this global pandemic progresses.

We understand that, depending schedules and work requirements, attendees may not be available to attend the Live Event (in whole or in part) during the scheduled event dates. 

Once you register as an attendee, you will have unlimited lifetime access to all training content, including live speaker sessions and recordings, transcriptions, training summaries, audio-only content, downloadable resources, and EXCLUSIVE ACCESS to any post-summit Instructor Q&As and Roundtable Sessions. 

ALL Law Enforcement Firearms Training Professionals. This online event was designed to create training sessions that are relevant and actionable for all IALEFI members. 

Yes. Anyone who is a firearms instructor or in a training position within their agency may attend. 

Non-members will also be given the opportunity for an IALEFI membership (minimum one (1) year) during registration to this event.
