State Police of Public Security (PESP) officers are trained by the Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS), which has trained and accredited instructors trained by SWAT personnel (Special Weapons and Tactics).

Víctor Félix Félix, State Operations Security Coordinator of the PESP, reported that it is a group of 25 elements of the corporation's special groups, who develop planning strategies and have precision shooting practice.
"From this training they will have the knowledge to plan intervention in closed places where the live fire is latent or where the incident is already developing with live fire, that is to say, a confrontation between a delinquent group and our elements responsible for guaranteeing the law and that there is a exchange of bullets between both contingents he indicated.
Felix Félix said that the first slogan of the Secretary of Public Security, Adolfo García Morales, is to maintain and safeguard the physical integrity of the agents and with them protect the security of civilians or scene where the crime takes place.
"The repetition of events is what makes them more dexterous, and at the unfortunate hour of an incident with a delinquency group our chances in proportion are much greater our possibility to keep us 100% alive and to reduce organized crime," he emphasized .

At the beginning of the practice was present Juan Miguel Arias Soto, General Director of the Higher Institute of Public Security of the State (ISSPE).
