Course Overview
The Tactical Medical Practitioner (TMP) program is SOARescue's flagship tactical medicine course. It goes beyond traditional TCCC/TECC to build complete tactical medical operators who can integrate seamlessly into law enforcement and military teams. Students progress through a structured hybrid curriculum — completing online pre-work before arriving for an intensive in-residence program that emphasizes hands-on skill development, clinical decision-making under stress, and full-scale scenario-based assessments. TMP graduates leave with the knowledge, confidence, and muscle memory to save lives in the most hostile environments.

What TMP graduates say
TMP changed how I approach tactical medicine. The stress inoculation and scenario-based training pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of.

The instructors aren't just teaching from a book — they're actively working in these roles. That operational experience shows in every lesson.
