Train beside
America’s best.
Every Black Ops instructor brings decades of real-world experience from military special operations, law enforcement, fire and rescue, emergency medicine, executive leadership, and the private sector.
These aren’t presenters reading from a script. They’re practitioners who have served, led, and performed at the highest levels of their profession. Throughout the weekend, you’ll train beside them, learn from their successes and failures, and leave with insights that simply can’t be found in a classroom. Every instructor donates their time because they believe in the mission of Birds Eye View Project and the lives being changed through Black Ops.
