The foundation of the program is understanding and training realistically for stress events. From driving too fast and using unwarranted amounts of force – to ineffective communication and the inability to decompress off duty – the seminar emphasizes the need to understand and manage stress as the key to professional and personal success. Instruction will address current events as well as classic training points. The seminar is open to all levels of sworn law enforcement.
