Description: 

Law enforcement agencies have come under intense pressure in recent years to prioritize their efforts at “de-escalation.” We will discuss the often-challenging expectations of law enforcement professionals to gain compliance without using physical force and how oftentimes, this may not be realistic or safe. The legitimate goal of de-escalation tactics is to resolve problems with minimal harm. This distinction is critical. 

This course will present law enforcement concepts and methods to support de-escalation efforts. Attendees will be provided with knowledge to apply core skills of incident stabilization, tactics, and decision-making, and verbal and non-verbal skills to establish contact, build rapport and create influence with difficult subjects.
