Hello.
I am really considering LE after I finish my contract. I don't know much about SWAT, or the like teams. I haven't found much of what I am looking for on here, or google searching. Is the training pretty similar everywhere? Are there better departments to go to for someone who may be interested in it? Would a small agency be likely to have one? Or would it be better to get into a larger departments? What is the big difference between part, and full time SWAT officers, other than the obvious? Does one get more/better training than the other? What has your overall experience been being apart of SWAT?
