Proper Patrol

One of the best trainings I’ve been to. Very eye opening and informative! I highly recommend Dakota and Proper Patrol!

Amazing Class. I recommend for every officer.

Great class

At the beginning of the class I didn’t quite have the full understanding of what I wanted to do. Yes I said I wanted to work interdiction.. but truly I was a bit unsure due to the lack of training I have been a part of involving interdiction in my past LEO related jobs. This training has great info involving interdiction work, involving body cam/dashcam videos with in car interviews, and great drug seizures.

Not only that. In this class mental health, and critical incidents are prioritized by talking about, and giving resources to LEO to ensure that they do have the chance to get the help that they deserve.

Highly recommended!

Training was was incredibly well rounded and beneficial. Covered a wide range of topics, was interactive, and kept class engaged.

The ‘Proper patrol Class’ goes over a little bit of all patrol tactics and is a great class.

This is a fantastic course. It helps you to open your mind, think outside the box, and gives you what I believe are essential tools moving forward after the class is complete

This is amazing training. No matter how long you have been in Law Enforcement, you will take something away from this training. Highly recommended.

Great class! Hoping to bring this class to my area so my guys can learn great skills.

Provides an equal load of real world events, case law, trends of criminal activity and engagement in the classroom.

I think the whole course was beneficial. Provided good information about articulating things you see and pointing out how the small details matter.

Great class

Compounds experience with tactics for on and off duty.

Very informative and interactive class. I took a lot away from this class and look forward to apply the knowledge learned on the streets.

The class was a very good class and my favorite I’ve attended. It was very informative and related really well to the job and real life.

An amazing class Cook is a fountain of knowledge. I really enjoyed his class!

Incredible class. Highly recommend

The Proper Patrol Tactics class was informative and well-structured. We covered case law, probable cause, and reasonable suspicion, then closed with an important discussion on officer wellness. Instructor Dakota Cook was knowledgeable and made the material personal and easy to relate to real-life patrol work. Overall, it was a great reminder of both sound tactics and self-care in the field.

The course was very eye-opening and impactful. It started slower than expected, but I quickly learned it is designed that way. Definitely a must-have for cops of all tenures who are looking for ways to enhance their knowledge and abilities.

Very good class. This class was more of an introduction course I felt like. The instructor was very knowledgeable over the material and passionate. I would like to see more on body language and street survalence for a patrol officer.

This class is highly informative and has taught things that tenured LEOs in my agency did not know. As a rookie officer, it has given me more motivation to be proactive because I've learned more of what to look for. I highly recommend this class to any and all LEOs.

I really appreciated this class and the info in it. Lots of examples to use and case law. Dakota was very knowledgeable and kept the class engaging. I only felt the slide show was a little all over and could possibly be organized better.

Dakota’s class is an A-Z journey of how to prepare yourself to not only be a squared away proactive Officer, but an Officer that takes care of themselves and their buddies.

Great course for a young officer. Your academy and department will give you the basics you need as a patrol officer to do your job. This course enhances your ability to that job at a higher level.

I recently attended the Proper Patrol class, and honestly, it was one of the best training experiences I’ve ever had. The instructor was amazing — knowledgeable, down to earth, and really focused on helping us become better out on patrol.

The class went beyond just the basics. It taught me how to think more proactively, improve my awareness, and make better decisions in real-world situations. I left feeling more confident, prepared, and professional in the way I approach my job.

Overall, Proper Patrol truly made me a better police officer. I’d highly recommend it to anyone who wants to grow in this career and take their patrol skills to the next level.
