# Illinois Board Certifies BolaWrap Training

The Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board certified Wrap Technologies’ 10-hour BolaWrap 150 user course for in-service training. Participating agencies may apply 5.5 course hours toward mandated training requirements, subject to state and agency rules. The certification creates a potential training and equipment sales channel in Illinois, but the announcement identifies no agency purchase, solicitation, contract value, or requirement to acquire BolaWrap equipment.

- Illinois law enforcement agencies can evaluate whether the certified course fits their in-service training plans and applicable agency rules; the certification does not itself mandate equipment purchases.
- Wrap Technologies says it has submitted the curriculum for consideration in additional states, which could expand the potential market if other training authorities certify it.
- Contractors and agencies assessing the offering should distinguish the training-hour credit from a procurement award: no contract or funding commitment is identified.
