This course has been rescinded as of March, 2021. In response to updated guidance from the US Department of Homeland Security, POST has rescinded the online “Flying While Armed” training course previously available in the NVeLearn system. Among the many pre-requisites for non-federal LEOs to fly armed aboard scheduled air service, individuals must complete the DHS LEOSA training curriculum in an instructor-led course, which now must be taught by agency personnel meeting the instructor qualification standards of the agency in which they are employed. It is recommended that any peace officer who previously completed the course online, or who require an update in Transportation Security Administration policies and procedures, re-take the training prior to any mission, from an instructor designated by your individual agency. Agencies may request the training materials from DHS directly by visiting www.tsa.gov/travel/law-enforcement.  ;
