DESCRIPTION: Conflict Resolutions – 8 hours
We see almost nightly on the news the conflicts between the public and those sworn to protect them. Conflict Resolutions (CR) answers the root cause of these conflicts and transitions this understanding into resolutions. Steven Varnell has developed the CR class to assist law enforcement officers by utilizing his expertise in behavioral science and interviewing.
Attendees to the CR workshop will learn why the problems exist by exploring the responsible mindsets and the simplistic techniques to rectify them, words and phrases to use and not use, and specific de-escalation techniques. Become a better law enforcement officer with the simple understanding of precise communication’s tactics. This course will assist every level of law enforcement from the street cop on patrol to the public information officer and staff.

OFFICER SAFETY and SURVIVAL – 16 hours
Officer Safety and Survival is a unique course unlike anything currently taught because its focus is with the patrol officer. It encompasses a comprehensive curriculum that stresses issues related to officer safety and survival. Considering the unacceptable high numbers of line of duty deaths and injuries, our number one goal is to develop enhanced officer safety skills so the attendee is ultimately more observant, understanding and safety conscious.
Attendees will be introduced to the concepts and protocols associated with the most current and unique tactical techniques designed for the patrol officer. These techniques incorporate the safest, universally accepted strategies that officers can incorporate when engaged in patrol and confrontations. Attendees will receive information regarding a wide variety of encounters, each examined and dissected, to learn how to perform their duties safely and survive in the worst situations.
Upon completing the course, the attendee will have a better understanding of Traffic Stop Safety; Pedestrian Encounters; Foot Pursuits; Hands-On Encounters; Tactical Firearms; Gun and Ammo; Building Entries; Knife Defense; Off Duty/Plain Clothes; Training Issues; TCCC concerns; and much more.
