Welcome to the Addressing the Reluctant Officer: Is it Failure or Hesitancy? training course. With calls for police reforms across the country, anti-law enforcement legislature, politicians, mainstream, social media all judging and scrutinizing every action of a law enforcement officer. All these factors play heavily on police officers’ reluctance to use force. There is a call from experts and trainers from across the county on how to deal with these issues. There are multiple reasons why officers failed to act during a use of force incident. This workshop identifies an array of reasons why officers do not respond to use of force incidents. Discussions will be based upon use of force investigation, cognitive interviewing, non-disciplinary retraining, adaptive thinking under stress and quantifiable measurements.
This course will also focus on areas including:
- Understanding hesitation in use of force incidents
- Investigative tools and cognitive interviewing
- Retraining, stress response, and performance metrics
Our training experts recommend this course for all officers, ranks, and command staff.
