About the Course

When a lethal threat presents itself, there’s often no time to think. Your body and mind can be hijacked by acute stress. This program is designed to explore how the body reacts when unexpected high-pressure situations affect your ability to understand and process an immediate threat. We then offer techniques to help you stay calm, focused, and physically ready when it matters most.

This course is available to certified officers and is open to officers from outside law enforcement agencies.
