This is a great basic level search class. I believe every officer who is proactive and frequently searches vehicles, needs to take the class to learn how to properly search common hides.

I have been on patrol for 8 years, I’m a K9 handler, I’ve been to several interdiction classes, worked with the interdiction task force in my spare time, have had a lot of hands on experience. This online class was a good refresher for searching basics. A lot of it I was already aware of, but seeing someone who is very skilled in this field talk about what they check and look for is always good to take in. I also learned different things here and there from watching Jeremey explain things.

I search vehicles frequently but always felt a little concerned about damaging property or that I was missing something in my search. After watching this training I feel a lot more confident and can’t wait to put this training into action!

Bauer and Al are fantastic instructors and an even better individuals. The way they speak and teach, shows how passionate they are about interdiction work and the work they do. On top they are very personal and open about sharing their knowledge.

Police officers need to attend this class. The information that was provided about how the inner workings (ideology) of multiple organizations was mind blowing. I highly recommend this to every level of law enforcement from patrol to chiefs.

Shaheen Pardazi delivered an outstanding presentation of his Mules & Martyrs class. I was genuinely blown away by how important and relevant this material is. His delivery was sharp, practical, and connected directly to what we deal with on the street. This is hands down the best class I’ve attended in years. Every cop should make it a priority to sit through this course, it’s that good.

Mules and Martyrs was a really eye-opening class that gave me a better understanding of Muslim culture and how it differs from extremist beliefs. It helped clear up a lot of misconceptions and gave practical info on how radicalization happens and what signs to look for. I feel more prepared to spot potential threats while still being respectful and aware of cultural differences. Overall, it was a solid class that made me more confident in handling situations involving possible terrorist activity.

I recently completed Shawn Pardazi’s 24‑hour “Mules & Martyrs” course in Southlake—a timely, critical training that should be mandatory for all Texas law enforcement officers.

In today’s world—marked by ongoing conflicts in Israel, Palestine, Iran, and Syria—understanding the ideological spectrum of Middle Eastern communities is more vital than ever. Recent events have shown how U.S. citizens have been targeted and killed by individuals radicalized into extremist interpretations of Islam. Mr. Pardazi’s curriculum addressed myths, debunked false narratives, and offered a balanced examination of cultural diversity alongside the realities of extremist ideologies.

Prior to the course I had limited knowledge of Middle Eastern cultures; I left with a comprehensive, actionable understanding that I can apply directly in the field. This course delivers far more value than many currently mandated training sessions that lack operational relevance. Highly recommend!
