About US

Tactical Training Solutions was founded by Craig Burris. Craig has an extensive resume in training and education. Starting in the Air Force, Craig quickly learned not only his passion for training, but also for teaching. After the Air force, Craig co-founded Veritas Tactical, a company dedicated to improving training for the military and law enforcement.  Veritas Tactical was such a success it was soon bought out by Security With Advanced Technology (NASDAQ: SWAT).  Craig was assigned a position in non-lethal weapons development and military training.  Once a month for many years, Craig donated his time to the USMC's Marine Corp Martial Arts Instructor Program (MCMAIP) at Camp Pendleton, CA. In addition to his work with law enforcement and military units, Craig taught women's self defense and rape prevention as an adjunct faculty member five years at Concordia College in St. Paul, MN and served 2 years as a Reserve Police Officer for the city of Lakeville.
