Great class and helpful info to put into practice
Great class. Instructor shared/showed great tactics on how to keep the conversation consensual, as well as seeing different indications of deception and suspicious behavior. Would recommend to LEOs of any level.
A lot of applicable material, like the use of videos.
Incredible class. Great content which is the instructor’s own and shows the validity of the content being taught.
I really enjoyed taking this course. I was able to be fully engaged throughout the course due to the use of real body cam footage. I felt extremely confident to start conducting more consensual interactions after this course.
If you have any doubt about making consensual encounters, this class is by far the best. Nic thoroughly explains everything and backs it up with his own BWC which is a HUGE part in helping understand all aspects of consensual encounters. You’ll for sure leave this class feeling much more confident then when you entered.
Nic was an awesome instructor and open and friendly sharing his experiences, teaching the class, and answering questions. Provided real world examples and demonstrations of his experience and what he was teaching.
This was a great class, gave many new tools in the tool box to use when gathering information.
Excellent training! The content was relevant and on point, and the instructor’s experience and delivery made the material both engaging and practical. I would highly recommend this training to any LEO looking to enhance their investigative skills and gain valuable, real-world knowledge.
Great class. Loved how you teach about base line and showed examples of it. Also you don’t shy away from mistakes you have made you help everyone learn from them.
I thought I gained a lot of great information about how to go about starting and doing consensual encounters. I know the stuff is out there but didn’t really know what to do before. I fully feel like I can at least start trying to do them after this class. As a newer officer in law enforcement, this class was awesome.
Very informative and interactive class. Explains in detail on how to traverse through voluntary contacts and to recognize signs of deception.
Bonney did an excellent job balancing the case law covered in the course with practical instruction on how to apply it, followed by real-world examples of how those principles are used on the street. His teaching style made the class both informative and entertaining, which kept everyone engaged throughout the course.
One of the strongest aspects of the training was how Bonney tailored the material to the environments and situations we are actually likely to encounter based on our patrol areas and specialized assignments. The course covered practical applications in locations such as bus stations, truck stops, hotels, and open-venue areas, making the instruction directly relevant to the work we do.
Overall, Bonney did a great job taking legal concepts and case law and turning them into practical, street-level knowledge that officers can understand and apply in real-world situations.
You are missing things and letting things go if you don’t take the time to learn. This is one of those classes you need to take and everyone in the career should.
Course was great and had a lot of useful info. I enjoyed learning about the different signs of deception. Watching the instructors’ BWC is alway interesting and to actually see they are displaying the info they teach.
The class has elevated my understanding of pro active policing. The instructor did a great job explaining case law and real world examples.
Informative and engaging. There was nice amount of material to take home and study further such as case laws and behavioral study.
This class teaches effective and legally sound strategies to help any officer excel in consensual encounters. This is applicable to all kinds of jurisdictions.
Nicks class if very well put together and shows body cams of encounters he has had previously and breaks them down. He covers case law and techniques to use when conducting consensual encounters. I highly recommend this class!
Great class would recommend to a friend
Class demonstrates a good knowledge of how to approach individuals and asking open ended questions, allowing for time to see people being deceptive.
Very good class. Being taught by someone who is currently doing the work makes a huge difference.
This class was great, the instructor was easy to follow and backed his presentation with BCW of his own doing allowing for discussion and first hand breakdowns
Loved the class and really helped to u sweat and the different tier levels of encounters and the court cases to fall back on!
Great course with useful and practical information. The instructor provided real life examples and covered case law to show the legality of the course work. Highly recommended training.
