About

​

Twenty-first century law enforcement officers must be highly and specifically trained. The North Metro Regional Public Safety Training Facility was founded in 1992 with this goal in mind. The City of Maple Grove and the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office came together to build a 22,000 square foot training facility.

​

After nearly 30 years, the original facility had become dated and unable to meet modern demands. An extensive renovation and additional new construction was finished in March 2023. The facility now offers 58,000 square feet of training and range space. The City of Maple Grove owns the cooperative regional training facility. The four major partner agencies are Maple Grove Police Department, Plymouth Police Department, Brooklyn Park Police Department, and the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office. The features include the following.

​

Two adjustable-size classrooms equipped with state of the art audio-visual systems and a licensed Microsoft Teams room with a sound system, microphones, and cameras for remote viewing and/or live streaming. 

 

Two firearm ranges, each equipped with their own firearm cleaning and repair spaces:

  1. The West Range is 40 yards with twelve lanes (used by law enforcement and the public).

  2. The East Range is 50 yards with twelve lanes and includes access for squad cars right on the range.

 

VirTra 300 virtual reality simulator for Immersive critical decision making scenario training.

 

Mat room for defensive tactics.

 

Reality-Based Training (RBT) area that includes:

  • Indoor space with a two-story moveable, configurable wall system and two simulated jail cells.

  • Indoor space also has garage access and space large enough for two squad cars.

  • Outdoor concrete training area adjacent to the indoor space.

  • Both spaces allow blanks, Airsoft, and simunition-style paint balls.

  • Moveable target system for less-lethal 40mm and pepper ball training.​
