Illinois Tactical Officers Association Conference
                  November 19-21, 2023

The Illinois Tactical Officers Association is proud to announce the annual Law Enforcement Tactical Training Conference is BACK with a huge lineup of some of our nation’s premier Tactical Trainers, Podcast Stars and Critical Incident Operational Debriefs.

We heard your suggestions and conference recommendations – the conference is back to two-and-a-half days to include Main Presenters, Tactical Debriefs, Breakout Sessions & the Commanders Forum - here's what you can expect...


35th Annual Training Conference is to again partner up with Daniel Defense. We have had such a great response to past offers, we looked to build it out.

So, the exciting news is that Daniel Defense has once again joined with ITOA to offer our members special pricing on their line of law enforcement patrol and precision rifles. This is the first time three different platforms will be included.

This offer is available starting today, Wednesday, November 15th, and runs through Monday, December 18th. Each of their rifles will be marked with the ITOA logo. If you have not taken advantage of previous offerings, this is the opportunity to do so.

We sincerely thank law enforcement sales manager Joe Marler and the team at Daniel Defense for their continued support of ITOA and superior products and customer service.
