The class was very informative and gave great insight into ways drugs and contraband can be hidden inside a vehicle. This course showed what and where to look to find any potential compartments and is another tool to aid me in becoming a more effective police officer.

I was looking forward to this class for a long time once I heard about Jeremy from Den's class in January.... I really enjoyed how the class was focused solely searching the vehicle...i felt really confident from other interdiction courses ive taken but spending a whole day on the anatomy of vehicles and possible inconsistencies within has definitely increased my knowledge and confidence.

This was an awesome training class and one of my favorite courses that I’ve been to. It was extremely informative and relevant. It really provided useful information and shed light on things I never thought about before. It really helps you better understand what to look for when identifying a criminal vehicle and how to conduct a search, as well as investigation and interview techniques.
