Description

Nothing is more challenging than teaching the use of force. This two-day program focuses on developing and executing a use-of-force program for agency in-service training. The program includes an in-depth review of critical case law and teaches attendees how to connect with the officers they are responsible for training by using scenario-based learning techniques. Some topics discussed will include de-escalation techniques, the perils of waiting too long to use force, developing training programs to include a variety of response options, how to safely create stress in the training environment, critical thinking drills, and more. The program includes PowerPoint materials, all relevant case law, exams, email updates, and access to staff for program consultation. (2 Days)
