Description
This certification program provides a comprehensive framework for understanding, teaching, supervising, and investigating law enforcement use of force. It is designed for:
• Use-of-Force Instructors: to build legally sound lesson plans and provide effective training methods
• Supervisors/Investigators: to evaluate, review, and document force incidents
• Policy Makers: to align agency use-of-force/response-to-resistance policies with constitutional standards, case law, and best practices
The course integrates law, liability, training methodology, operational decision-making, officer mindset, and leadership into one cohesive training program. It also addresses contemporary issues including de-escalation, restraint deaths, neck restraints, and weapon confusion.
An optional LLRMI Use of Force Instructor/Analyst Certification may be earned by completing a written assignment reviewed by the instructor team. Participants are encouraged to bring their agency’s use-of-force policies and lesson plans for peer and instructor discussion.
