Nic did a great job showing his craft and skills by providing his body camera videos. Being able to watch him explain consensual encounters with real life body camera videos allows for a better understanding of the entire process.

I attended this class to increase my confidence in conducting consensual encounters. This class definitely increased my knowledge and confidence. I really enjoyed the videos showing how Nic Bonney does it in real world situations.

Nick Jackson did a great job with his presentation. This course is designed to teach deceptive behavior in traffic stops. The basics of this training can assist with general crime investigations. Getting bad guys to talk only helps you develop additional PC. New or seasoned officers will benefit from this training.

This was a good course for me. I enjoyed being able to learn from somebody who does interdiction for a living and not somebody that just gets narcotics on patrol. I would have enjoyed diving more into what types of cars are stopped and the conversation that goes into gaining consent. I did like using actual stops and videos where loads are caught.

Good coarse. As a hostage negotiator we utilize the communication aspects that are used here. I would love to see how to help new officers take this in and be receptive and pro active to this in lower call volume areas or low moral.

This class was great. The PowerPoints were very organized and gave a good understanding of the process of interdiction. The use of actual police videos were very helpful to see the topics being implemented. I know there were documents to show the deceptive behavior being articulated in a report but I’d like to hear more of how you articulate these behaviors in reports.

This was a great class. I enjoyed the portion about human behavior and how to spot deception within verbal communication. I like all the different videos and how they relate to different investigations. I would like to see more information about the baseline questioning and how to expand on that.

Good class. Knowledgeable instructor that relied on real world examples instead of just power points. Showing his actual videos are more beneficial due to him being able to break them down.

This was an amazing class. Nick was extremely knowledgeable and had the experience to back up what he was teaching. This class definitely lit a fire under me to get out there and hit the streets hard looking for drugs/money/guns. I will be looking for more of Nick’s classes to attend.

This class was very informative, I appreciate seeing the behavior in a real life video. It would be nice to see interviews of examples outside of traffic stops, IE domestics, other felony investigations to see other examples of deceptive behavior.
